[Chorus: The O'Jays]
Nine hundred and ninety-two arguments
Nine hundred and ninety-two, quit just a-fighting
Nine hundred and ninety-two, I'm sick of you

[Verse 1: Eddie Levert]
I can't even go down to the corner
And get myself a cold, cold beer
'Cause when I come back to the house
Your mouth is the only thing I'm gonna hear
It's a shame

[Pre-Chorus: Walter Williams]
All this fussing and fighting we're doing
Don't you know that it's got to stop?
Don't make sense to go on this way
Our love affair is a total flop

[Chorus: The O'Jays]
Nine hundred and ninety-two arguments
Nine hundred and ninety-two, quit just a-fighting
Nine hundred and ninety-two, I'm sick of you

[Verse 2: Eddie Levert]
I don't wanna leave you
But I gotta tell you just how it is
Life is too short to live in misery
There's so much that it has to give
[Pre-Chorus: Walter Williams]
Maybe we just weren't meant for each other
You know, we might have made a big mistake
But two people understand one another
Tell me, how long does it take?

[Chorus: The O'Jays]
Nine hundred and ninety-two arguments
Nine hundred and ninety-two, quit just a-fighting
Nine hundred and ninety-two, I'm sick of you

[Post-Chorus: Eddie Levert]
Ah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Pre-Chorus: Walter Williams]
Maybe we just weren't meant for each other
You know, we might have made a big mistake
But two people understand one another
Tell me, how long does it take?

[Chorus: The O'Jays]
Nine hundred and ninety-two arguments
Nine hundred and ninety-two, quit just a-fighting
Nine hundred and ninety-two arguments
Nine hundred and ninety-two, quit just a-fighting
[Bridge: Eddie Levert & Walter Williams]
Woman, what you're doing, you know it ain't cool
Woman, what you're saying, you know it ain't cool
You ain't got to do all this fussin' and fightin' that you're doing
You know it ain't no good
All this cussin' and fussin' that you're doing, you know it ain't no good
I'm supposed to be wearing the pants around here
But all I get out of you is static, woman
Making my children nervous
They can't sleep at night, won't eat a bite
Gotta stop this arguing, baby
You don't know what you're doing to me now
Come on

[Outro: The O'Jays]
Nine hundred and ninety-two, nine hundred and ninety-two arguments, arguments
Nine hundred and ninety-two, nine hundred and ninety-two arguments, arguments
Nine hundred and ninety-two, nine hundred and ninety-two arguments, arguments
Nine hundred and ninety-two, nine hundred and ninety-two arguments, arguments
Nine hundred and ninety-two, nine hundred and ninety-two arguments, arguments
Nine hundred and ninety-two, nine hundred and ninety-two arguments, arguments
Nine hundred and ninety-two, nine hundred and ninety-two arguments, arguments
Nine hundred and ninety-two, nine hundred and ninety-two arguments, arguments
Nine hundred and ninety-two, nine hundred and ninety-two arguments
