What are the lyrics to 'Tell Your Girlfriend' by Lay Bankz?

Here are the full lyrics to Lay Bankz catchy viral hit 'Tell Your Girlfriend':

Should tell my boyfriend what I've been doin'

Been thinkin of you every time I screw him

And if you want me you gotta put the word in

Go tell your girlfriend, that I'm your girlfriend

Originally I wouldn't do it (oh oh oh oh)

But I can't have my heart looking stupid

I gave n****s a shot and they blew it

And initially I wouldn't do this

Hennessy pourin' this sh*t getting fluid

We were just friends but then came in cupid

The tension was building, we had to pursue it

(Tell em, tell em, tell em, tell em)

What its been with us this whole time

(Tell em, tell em, tell em)

What if I let your girl find out?

(Tell em, tell em, tell em)

What if she was to go and tell mine?

(Tell em, tell em)

Cause I don't wanna live a lie, lie, lie

Should tell my boyfriend what I've been doin'

Been thinkin of you every time I screw him

And if you want me you gotta put the word in

Go tell your girlfriend, that I'm your girlfriend

Imma play the backend for the mean time

Took a break had to focus on some me time

We can keep it lowkey for the meantime

Had a grip so tight from the inside

Got you runnin' back to back, came three times

Now I'm kissin' on your neck that's a sweet spot

But if we freakin' I need you to say it

It only take one b*tch to start hatin'

(Tell em, tell em, tell em, tell em)

What its been with us this whole time

(Tell em, tell em, tell em)

What if I let your girl find out?

(Tell em, tell em, tell em)

What if she was to go and tell mine?

(Tell em, tell em)

Cause I don't wanna live a la la lie

Should tell my boyfriend what I've been doin'

Been thinkin of you every time I screw him

And if you want me you gotta put the word in

Go tell your girlfriend, that I'm your girlfriend

Should tell my boyfriend what I've been doing

Been thinkin of you every time I screw him

And if you want me you gotta put the word in

Go tell your girlfriend, that I'm your girlfriend
