  • You used to call me on my
    You used to, you used to
    Yeah

    You used to call me on my cell phone
    Late night when you need my love
    Call me on my cell phone
    Late night when you need my love
    And I know when that hotline bling
    That can only mean one thing
    I know when that hotline bling
    That can only mean one thing

    Ever since I left the city, you
    Got a reputation for yourself now
    Everybody knows and I feel left out
    Girl, you got me down, you got me stressed out
    'Cause ever since I left the city, you
    Started wearing less and goin' out more
    Glasses of champagne out on the dance floor
    Hangin' with some girls I've never seen before

    You used to call me on my cell phone
    Late night when you need my love
    Call me on my cell phone
    Late night when you need my love
    I know when that hotline bling
    That can only mean one thing
    I know when that hotline bling
    That can only mean one thing

    Ever since I left the city, you, you, you
    You and me, we just don't get along
    You make me feel like I did you wrong
    Going places where you don't belong
    Ever since I left the city, you
    You got exactly what you asked for
    Running out of pages in your passport
    Hanging with some girls I've never seen before

    You used to call me on my cell phone
    Late night when you need my love
    Call me on my cell phone
    Late night when you need my love
    And I know when that hotline bling
    That can only mean one thing
    I know when that hotline bling
    That can only mean one thing

    These days, all I do is
    Wonder if you're bendin' over backwards for someone else
    Wonder if you're rollin' up a Backwoods for someone else
    Doing things I taught you, gettin' nasty for someone else
    You don't need no one else
    You don't need nobody else, no
    Why you never alone?
    Why you always touchin' road?
    Used to always stay at home, be a good girl
    You was in the zone
    Yeah, you should just be yourself
    Right now, you're someone else

    You used to call me on my cell phone
    Late night when you need my love
    Call me on my cell phone
    Late night when you need my love
    And I know when that hotline bling
    That can only mean one thing
    I know when that hotline bling
    That can only mean one thing

    Ever since I left the city Writer/s: Anthony Paul Jefferies, Aubrey Drake Graham, Timothy E. Thomas
