Janet Jackson
"Whoops Now"

Friday morning and all my work is done
I've packed my bags I'm on the run
I got a feeling that I'm gonna have
Some fun in the sun with my friends
And he's got me goin'


(chorus):


Whoops now
Sorry I can't go
Whoops now
Sorry I can't go
Whoops now
Sorry I can't go
Sorry I can't sorry I can't go now


Friday noon and my boss is on the phone
He's telling me that I can't leave home
An extra hand at work is what he called for
He said
We need you here
To my friends I'm goin'


(chorus):


Whoops now
Sorry I can't go
Whoops now
Sorry I can't go
Whoops now
Sorry I can't go
I don't know why
My job has called me in
Whoops now
Sorry I can't go
Whoops now
Sorry I can't go
Whoops now
Sorry I can't go
I don't know why
My job has called me...


It makes no diff'rence if you're off work or not
You dream your weekend
Hand on the doorknob
Out with your friends
Hey, fun in the sun now
That's when the phone rings


Friday evening and I'm all alone at home
I know my friends are having fun
I'll plan my weekend, damn it
Leave the machine on
Next time he calls he'll hear my voice sayin' loud and clear


(chorus):


Whoops now
Sorry I can't go
Whoops now
Sorry I can't go
Whoops now
Sorry I can't go
I'm out having fun in the sun with my friends
Whoops now
Sorry I can't go
Whoops now
Sorry I can't go
Whoops now
Sorry I can't go
I'm out having fun in the sun with my friends
