Lyrics

Hey Ya! (Jo Whiley's Live Lounge)

No....

Mm....

My baby don't mess around

Because she loves me so

And this I know for sure

Oh but does she really wanna

But can't stand to see me walk out the door

Don't try to fight the feeling

'Cause the thought alone

Is killing me right now

Thank God for Mom and Dad

For sticking through together

'Cause we don't know how

Yeah...

Chorus

Hey Ya.. (we don't no how) Hey Ya (Hey ay)

Hey Ya.. (mm hm..)Hey Ya

You think you've got it

Oh, you think you've got it

But got it just don't get it

Til there's's nothing at all

We've be together

Oh, we've been together

But separate's always better

When there's feelings involved

If what they say is nothing

Nothing forever

Then why you, why you, why you here together

No no no

Hey Ya.. (why you here) Hey Ya (why you here)

Hey Ya.. (I don't no why) Hey Ya Hey ya

Hey Ya.. (Hey Ya) Hey Ya (Hey Ya)

Hey Ya.. Hey Ya

Just coz there's nothin to prove (nothing lasts forever)

No no yeah yeah (nothing nothing at all)

Do do do do do no

(nothing nothing at all)

Hey Ya... Aaaa) Hey Ya

Hey Ya.. (hey ya) Hey Ya

Hey Ya.. (i don't I don't know why) Hey Ya

Hey Ya.. (nothin lasts forever) Hey Ya

(nothin lasts forever)

Hey Ya.. (nothin lasts forever) Hey Ya....

Hey Ya.. Hey Ya

Hey Ya.. Hey Ya...

My baby don't mess around

Because she loves me so

And this I know for sure

Oh but does she really wanna

But can't stand to see me walk out the door

Don't try to fight the feeling

'Cause the thought alone

Is killing me right now

Thank God for Mom and Dad

For sticking through together

'Cause we don't know how
