[Verse 1:]
Damn ring, now my life ain't been through nothing but
the drama (drama)
Just had the worst fight ever with my mama (mama)
She believes that you've got two or three on the come
up
Telling me you're loving me, but you're going home to
them
Damn I hope she's wrong cuz boy I love the ground you
walk on (walk on)
She knows that your ties in the streets can be fatal
(fatal)
She's threatening to disown me if I don't let this go
Lord can you help me before I blow
I'm so afraid
[Chorus:]
I'm at the phone booth
My mom just pissed me off
I can't take no more
Can you come and get me from the phone booth
She's telling me to break up
Cuz you ain't gon' do nothing but hurt me
Come get me from the phone booth
It's raining, I'm crying
Damn I hope he ain't been lying to me
Come get me from the phone booth
My mom just pissed me off
I cant take no more
Can you come and get me
[Boy on phone:] Baby, baby are you alright? Why you
crying man? Teairra?

Will you take me in like you told me before (me before)
Prove that she was just being hysterical (hysterical)
Show that what she thinks ain't reality, no
I love her (I do)
Same time (I love you)
But you both are making me choose (See what I go
through for you)
Boy you better hope the future that you're promising me
Is as real as the 45 up under your seat
Come on
[Chorus:]
I'm at the phone booth
My mom just pissed me off (Ay yay)

She's telling me to break up (Ay)
Cuz you ain't gon' do nothing but hurt me (Hurt me)
Come get me from the phone booth

Done like that again ( ooh)
Hope you ain't been running (Running) game
And cuz I'm so in need, ohh (Damn I got me so in need)
