I Want You Back ’98 Lyrics

[Intro: Puff Intro]
Yeah
From the old school
To the new school
Bad Boy remix, let's go

[Verse 1: Black Rob and Michael Jackson]
Like that, Black gon' slide with Mike Jack
Puff done remixed one hell of a track
Put me on it, I wanna know how many want it
Damn, it feels good to see people love on it
For those who love slow down, 'member Motown
Had a brotha' happy as shit, I mean the whole sound
Bangin' and catch six-four since we was shorties
Fee owes now rebooked from California
Carry 40's but I 'member them times in '79
When I first started to rhyme
Sometimes I gots to look back at what it was
The good old days, the triple o'shays when there was love
I want you back, but I can't grab that far
It's how it is, when you're living like a star, bad boy (Just let me tell ya, now, huh huh)
Come on, let's go

[Verse 2: Michael Jackson]
When I had you to myself, I didn't want you around
Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd
But someone picked you from the bunch, one glance was all it took
Now it's much too late for me to take a second look
[Chorus; The Jackson 5]
Oh baby, give me one more chance(To show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me(Back in your heart)
Oh, darlin', I was blind to let you go (Let you go, baby)
But now since I see you in his arms (I want you back)

[Post-Chorus; The Jackson 5]
Yes, I do now (I want you back)
Ooh, ooh, baby (I want you back)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (I want you back)
Nah, nah, nah, nah

[Verse 3: Michael Jackson]
Trying to live without your love is one long sleepless night
Let me show you, girl, that I know wrong from right
Every street you walk on, I leave tear stains on the ground
Following the girl I didn't even want you around
Let me tell you now

[Chorus: Michael Jackson & Jackson 5]
Oh, baby, all I need is one more chance (To show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me (Back in your heart)
Oh, darlin', I was blind to let you go (Let you go, baby)
But now since I see you in his arms, uh-huh

[Verse 4: Black Rob, Michael Jackson, and Diddy]
It's just like Jermaine, Jackie, Tito, Mike, and Marlon
Only thing on my mind now is stardom
Blowin' the F-up, my game's stepped up
'Member when Mike and them first came to record
Singin' hits like Skywriter, My Girl
People Make The World Go 'Round, Mama's Pearl
Can't Lose it, Joyful Jukebox Music
Never Can Say Goodbye, that's why we use it
It's Money Honey, so I gots to be there
And I'mma be yo Sugar Daddy, say it's real (Yeah, yeah)
Versace chair, PD, Life of the Party
Bad Boy, uh, make joints for everybody (All I need!)
[Bridge: Puff Daddy and (Michael Jackson)]
Motown
Berry Gordy (A buh buh buh buh)
History (A buh buh buh buh)
Let's go, come on (A buh buh buh buh)
Yeah (A buh buh buh buh)
Come on (A buh buh buh buh)
Yeah (A buh buh buh buh)

[Outro: Puff Daddy, Michael Jackson, and Jermaine Jackson]
Oh, just one more chance
To show you that I love you
Baby! Baby!
Baby! Baby!
Baby! Baby!
I want you back

This is the remix, come on
From the old to the new
Come on
Motown
Rock on
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
