Prince - How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore? Lyrics






I keep your picture beside my bed
And I still remember everything you said
I always thought our love was so right, I guess I was wrong
I always thought you'd be by my side mama, now you're gone

What I wanna know, baby
If what we had was good
How come you don't call me anymore, yeah?
Oh, anymore?

(Listen...)
I still light the fire on a rainy night
I still like it better when you're holding me tight
(OK, now, umm...)
Everybody said, everybody said that we should never part, ooh yeah
(I always said that we were kinda cute together myself)
Tell me baby, baby, baby, why, why'd you wanna go and break my heart? (Why'd you wanna do it, baby?)

All I wanna know, baby
If what we had was good
How come you don't call me anymore, yeah?
(Why don't you call me girl?
Oh yeah, oh yeah)

Sometimes it feels like I'm gonna die
If you don't call me mama, girl you gotta try
Down on my knees, beggin' you please, please, oh
Why can't you call me sometime, baby?
It's just one lousy dime, baby...
Why can't you call me sometime?
Oh, no no

Why on Earth can't you just pick up the phone, yeah?
You know I don't like to be alone
Why, why must you torture me baby?
Why you gotta treat me so bad?

    "anymore" isn't "aword". Neither is "alot"

  7. C.... G....

    In 2020 this is STILL one of the sexiest songs ever. There will never be another Prince-incomparable talent

  8. S.... B....

    There will never be another,, total package, everything and I mean everything. His guitar playing was unbelievable just a great musician all around

  9. T.... L....

    Girl 6 soundtrack.excellent

  10. Z.... ....

    Who the hell is hitting thumbs down?

  11. L.... W....

    Prince yo son purple and gay

  12. E.... O....

    There will never be another one like you! I’m talking about you—You—YOU—YES YOU ❤️😊👍

  13. T.... L....

    So much emotion in this song!!! Omg

  14. D.... R....

    I got a 60+ year old piano player into Prince from this song..it blew him away!

  15. L.... K....

    Love this....the piano, his soulful voice, I'll love him forever 💔

  16. M.... M....

    💜💜 I DEFINITELY would have called you Prince! 😁😁

  17. Y.... d....

    Goosebumbs while listing this song richt know what a legend was this man

  18. S.... W....

    Since he passed I cry every time I hear yhis

  19. X.... ....

    To me this is soul

  20. C.... S....

    No words can describe his talent.

  21. S.... L....

    💜💜💜🤗🤗🤗❤❤❤💘💘💘💘💘💘💘

  22. c.... a....

    I meet my wife at a prince concert he's magic.

  23. D.... R....

    The man, the myth, the legend.......a genius musically in every way possible....an all time grest singer, composer, arranger.....a Hall of Famer on 3 instruments (voice, piano, guitar).......a mover of women's minds platonically/personally/professionally/hypersexually.......a once-in-a-lifetime gift to the world.......thank you Prince for your music, all of it, including this lil diddy with a piano and his syncopated foot to keep time. Never will you be forgotten

  24. G.... D....

    I don't know about you, but this one right here reminds me so much of Aretha Franklin's Mary, Don't You Weep rendition! Or even Ray Charles' Drown In My Own Tears! Plus, this would be a major killer if he'd sung this for real!

  25. S.... J....

    On the part, "Why on Earth can't you just pick up the phone, yeah?"
    the way he sings is like a very Prince and signature style.
    Prince'd always be experimental which is one the greatest parts of him.

  26. M.... S....

    Honey Chile!! Stephanie Mills kills this song too🔥🔥

  27. W.... W....

    This was eighty fucking two!

  28. K.... S....

    IT always interests me, of whom he was thinking while writing his lyrics ….. who was on his mind with this song ?

  29. *.... *....

    Love❤❤❤❤

  30. D.... P....

    I wonder who was this woman not calling Prince... PRINCE???? 😍

    G.... G....

    Probably Vanity. She broke their relationship off

  32. h.... i....

    This is on my Spotify warpped

  33. C.... ....

    Everyone forgive me for thinking Alicia Keys sang this song till today!

  34. M.... B....

    As the story goes, Prince came in the studio one day and did it all one take....what a song what a legacy. ‪#RIPprince

  35. M.... C....

    I first heard this song on the radio one cold rainy night in the winter of 1982. When the first few melodic vocals came out of those speakers I thought 'I'm listening to one of those old Al Green songs'! But I quickly snapped out of it and realized to my pleasant surprise that it was none other than the incomparable Mr. Nelson himself! R.I.P. my brother~

  36. S.... L....

    This that goat music timeless

  37. G.... D....

    This would be awesome if Aretha Franklin sang this!

    G.... D....

    Totally agree. Aretha would've killed it.
    No disrespect or nothing. Once Aretha is done, People would be like, Alecia who?😊

    G.... D....

    @Chelsea Rogers


    Aside from them two, we could get a whole shoebox full of talented singers who could sing this song!

  38. P.... N....

    "And I still remember everything you said."

  39. S.... G....

    REST PEACEFULLY 🙏 ❤️ KING

  40. b.... ....

    Down on my knees, Beggging you please ... Classic.

  41. G.... G....

    I'm a true fan. So hurt about it.

  42. P.... W....

    💜💜💜💜

  43. L.... W....

    From one GEMINI to another, Prince had some super serious shit going on. It sounds fine and dandy, but he was on his hand and knees.

  44. d.... t....

    God I wish this was in a different key on this piano I'm playing today. C sharp or whatever u musicians call it. I might have to change it for my voice. Middle C is kinda my key or should I say it used to be my key...

  45. R.... E....

    Too bad you don't promote the side b songs like that do side A. Everybody know principal a lot of work into his music.

  46. W.... ....

    The dynamic range on this track, MAN

  56. D.... T....

    One of my all time Prince songs.

  57. R.... ....

    Who wishes the purple one was still alive this song is so underrated

    R.... ....

    This definitely is! But I like his version of this when he sings it slower

    R.... ....

    Me, I'm losing all of my music.

    Ah, yeah
    I keep your picture beside my bed
    And I still remember everything you said
    I always thought our love was so right
    I guess I was wrong
    I always thought you'd be by my side, mam
    Now you're gone
    What I want to know baby, what we had was good
    How come you don't call me
    Anymore, yeah?
    Listen
    I still light the fire on a rainy night
    I still like it better when you holding me tight (holding me tight)
    Well, now, um
    Everybody said, everybody said that we should never part
    Oh yeah
    I always did think we looked kind of cute together myself
    Tell me baby, baby, baby, why, why you want to go and break my heart?
    Why did you want to do it?
    All I want to know baby, what we had was good
    How come you don't call me anymore?
    Why don't you call me girl, yeah, yeah?
    Ah, yeah, sometimes it feels like I'm gonna die
    If you don't call me, mama, girl, you gotta try
    Down on my knees begging you please, please
    Why can't you call me sometime baby, yeah
    Just one lousy dime, baby
    Why can't you call me sometime?
    Oh, no, no
    Why on earth can't you just pick up the phone, yeah?
    You know I don't like being alone
    Why?
    Why must you torture me?
    Why you gotta torment me so?

  80. c.... m....

    Exacting, high wattage, wailing R&B vibrato...weeping, compelling heartbreak, house music, darlin' PRINCE, this would never apply to you, but thanx for the memories..

  81. H.... ....

    YUP somebody beatin that ivory

  82. c.... m....

    PRINCE could do anything....this is reminiscent of hm playing "Summertime"...straight up jazz and he slew it...calm and collected while tripping madly over the keys, the wind blowing his coif, unshaven and delicious..PRINCE

  83. g.... d....

    What a beautiful song! Goose bumps!

  84. J.... W....

    Every time.

  85. T.... ....

  87. C.... C....

    Real is Real

  88. W.... H....

    I keep your picture beside my bed, used to say this type of stuff to an ex girlfriend of mine. But that was then and finally got over her and moved on with my life.
