Destiny’s Child - Say My Name
Lyrics
[Intro: Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins]
(Darkchild '99)
[Chorus: Beyoncé & Destiny's Child]
Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you, say, "Baby, I love you"
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me "baby"
Why the sudden change?
Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you, say, "Baby, I love you"
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me "baby"
Better say my name
[Verse 1: Beyoncé]
Any other day I would call, you would say
"Baby, how's your day?" But today, it ain't the same
Every other word is "Uh-huh, yeah, okay"
Could it be that you are at the crib with another lady?
If you took it there, first of all, let me say
I am not the one to sit around and be played
So prove yourself to me if I'm the girl that you claim
Why don't you say the things that you said to me yesterday?
[Pre-Chorus: Destiny's Child & Beyoncé]
I know you say that I am assuming things
Something's goin' down, that's the way it seems
Shouldn't be no reason why you're actin' strange
If nobody's holdin' you back from me
'Cause I know how you usually do
Where you're sayin' everything to me times two
Why can't you just tell the truth?
If somebody's there then tell me who
[Chorus: Beyoncé & Destiny's Child]
Say my name, say my name (Say my name, is around you)
If no one is around you, say, "Baby, I love you" (Love you)
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name (Say my name, say my name)
You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me "baby" (Baby, yeah, yeah)
Why the sudden change?
Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you, say, "Baby, I love you" (Ye-yeah, ye-yeah, yeah)
If you ain't runnin' game (No, no, no, no, no, no)
Say my name, say my name
You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me "baby"
Better say my name
[Verse 2: Beyoncé]
What is up with this? Tell the truth, who you with?
How would you like it if I came over with my clique?
Don't try to change it now sayin' you gotta bounce
When two seconds ago said you just got in the house
It's hard to believe that you are at home by yourself
When I just heard the voice, heard the voice of someone else
Just this question, why do you feel you gotta lie?
Gettin' caught up in your game when you cannot say my name
[Pre-Chorus: Destiny's Child & Beyoncé]
I know you say that I am assuming things
Something's goin' down, that's the way it seems
Shouldn't be no reason why you're actin' strange
If nobody's holdin' you back from me
'Cause I know how you usually do
Where you're sayin' everything to me times two
Why can't you just tell the truth?
If somebody's there then tell me who
[Chorus: Beyoncé & Destiny's Child]
Say my name, say my name (Say my name)
If no one is around you, say, "Baby, I love you" (I love you)
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name (Say my name, say my name)
You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me "baby" (Say my name)
Why the sudden change? (Sudden change)
Say my name, say my name (Say my name)
If no one is around you, say, "Baby, I love you" (If ain't nothin' changed, oh)
If you ain't runnin' game (Baby, say my name)
Say my name, say my name
You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me "baby" (Ooh, oh)
Better say my name
[Bridge: Beyoncé & Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins]
Oh, yeah (Where my ladies at?)
Ye-yeah, ye-yeah, yeah (Please say that, come on)
Ye-yeah, ye-yeah, ye-yeah, ye-yeah (All the girls say)
Ye-yeah, ye-yeah (I can't hear ya)
Ye-yeah, ye-yeah, ye-yeah, ye-yeah (All the girls say)
Ye-yeah, ye-yeah, ye-yeah, ye-yeah (All the girls say)
Ye-yeah, ye-yeah, ye-yeah, ye-yeah
Ye-yeah, ye-yeah (Break it down)
Oh, woah, woah (Ye-ye-yeah)
(Uh, uh-uh, DC, take it to the bridge, come on)
[Pre-Chorus: Destiny's Child & Beyoncé]
I know you say that I am assuming things
Something's goin' down, that's the way it seems
Shouldn't be no reason why you're actin' strange
If nobody's holdin' you back from me
'Cause I know how you usually do
Where you're sayin' everything to me times two
Why can't you just tell the truth?
If somebody's there then tell me who
[Chorus: Beyoncé & Destiny's Child]
Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you, say, "Baby, I love you" (If no one is around you)
If you ain't runnin' game (Call me your boo)
Say my name, say my name (And tell me what you love to do)
You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me "baby" (Woah)
Why the sudden change?
Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you, say, "Baby, I love you" (Say, "Baby, I love you")
If you ain't runnin' game (Baby, say my name)
Say my name, say my name (Say my name, say my name)
You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me "baby" (Shady, baby)
Better say my name
Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you, say, "Baby, I love you" (Say, "Baby, I love you")
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name (Say my name)
You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me "baby" (Say my name)
Why the sudden change? (Ye-yeah, ye-yeah)
Say my name, say my name (Ye-yeah, ye-yeah)
If no one is around you (Ye-yeah, ye-yeah)
Say, "Baby, I love you" (Ye-yeah, ye-yeah, ye-yeah, ye-yeah)
If you ain't runnin' game (Ye-yeah, ye-yeah)
Say my name, say my name (Ye-yeah, ye-yeah)
You actin' kinda shady (Ye-yeah, ye-yeah)
Ain't callin' me "baby" (Ye-yeah, ye-yeah, ye-yeah, ye-yeah)
Better say my name
[Outro: Beyoncé]
Thou shalt know she can't love you

"Say My Name" was one of those songs I heard a lot in late 1999 and early 2000, and it hit like magic, and I think it still does. "Say My Name" is one of the sharpest and most well-written and fun and catchy R&B - Pop songs of the 90s. It was one of the indispensable songs of entertainment, party and dance nights. Even though it was released in late 1999, I think it was one of the best songs of the 90s, and even one of the best of the 2000s. I really miss the fun atmosphere of the 1990s, everything was more natural back then, most things seem artificial to me now.
