Why Try Lyrics by Tank and the Bangas

 

What’s up all you cats and kittens
This is Questlove, and you’re listening to T.A.T.V.
And here is, “Why Try” by Tank and the Bangas

Flowers, just because it’s Monday
Raindrops falling only one way
Showers (Showers)
Clouds ain’t smiling always
Bus stop (Bus stop)
Can you take me his way?

Why (Oh)
Try (Try)
Why (Oh)
Lie (You know)
Oh, why
Try
Oh, why
Lie

Sidewalks take forever somedays (Woo)
Driving (Driving)
Cruising down the freeway
Maybe (Maybe)
I could take the L train
Yeah, ooh
Baby, why you act so funny?

Why (Why, baby?)
Try (Why do I try?)
Why (Oh, why)
Lie (I’ve seen you burnin’, baby)
Oh, why (And I know)
Try (Hey)
Oh, why (Oh, why)
Lie (I’m tryin’)

I know you see me callin’, why you stallin’? (Oh)
Wonder, did you even read my text today? (Oh)
St. Tropez like dreams, so why you playin’?
Got inner city blues like Marvin Gaye

Oh, you know I’m tryin’, baby

Modest, why be when you can’t stay?
(He can’t even stay, girl)
Lately, you been acting shady
Tell me, why you do me that way?
Bus stop (Bus stop)
Got a ticket, one-way

Why (Why)
Try (Try, bye)
Why (Why)
Lie (Lie, fly)
Oh, why (Cry)
Try (You know it)
Oh, why (Hey, you know it)
Lie (Oh, why try)

Why (Why)
Try (Try)
Why (Why)
Lie (Oh, you know)
Oh, why
Try (Our love is gone now)
Oh, why (Our love is gone now)
Lie (Bye)

Why (I would never do that to my baby)
Try (Try)
Why (I would never do that to my boy)
Lie (Lie)
Oh, why (I’m drivin’ halfway ’round the town)
Try (To get to you)
Oh
