About Humpin' Around

"Humpin' Around" is a song by American singer Bobby Brown. It is rumored that the song was originally titled "Fuckin' Around", with the name later changed to make it more radio friendly, and to avoid potential censorship. The song contains an interpolation of "Dancing Days" by Led Zeppelin."Humpin' Around" spent two weeks at number one on the US Billboard Hot R&B Singles chart and reached number three on the Billboard Hot 100. Worldwide, the single reached number one in Australia, number two in New Zealand, number five in Spain and Sweden and the top 10 in at least eight other countries. In 1995 British electronic music group K-Klass remixed the song and released it following the success of their remix of Brown's "Two Can Play That Game". This new version saw the song reach the UK top 10 for the first time, peaking at number eight on the UK Singles Chart.

When you trust someone
And you know you're on their back
You ain't got no trusting about you
And you claim that you
Don't care what where I'm at
You've given me reason to doubt you
Say you trust someone
Why are you calling all around
Think I've got some dip on the side
Girl you don't trust no one
And you're constantly in doubt
You lose the game, if you play that way

Get up off my back
Save a heart attack
Ain't nobody humpin' around (ain't nobody humpin' around)
No matter what they say
No it ain't that way
Ain't nobody humpin' around
Nobody
Nobody 
Nobody 
Nobody 
Nobody 
Humpin' around babe

When you love someone
And you want to love them right
Got to get more lovin' about you
And you know that you're holding on too tight
Soon they will be leaving without you
Say that you love someone
Why are you calling all my friends
Thinking I've got something to hide
Girl you don't love no one
You don't know what love's all about
You lose the game, (if you) if you play that way

Get up off my back
Save a heart attack
Ain't nobody humpin' around (ain't nobody humpin' around)
No matter what they say
No it ain't that way
Ain't nobody humpin' around
Nobody
Nobody 
Nobody 
Nobody 
Nobody 
Humpin' around babe

Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Humpin' around babe
Girl if you trust someone
You don't call on everybody
Ain't nobody foolin' around
And the more I think about it
You lose all your clout and
You lose the game, baby, if you play that way

Get up off my back
Save a heart attack
Ain't nobody humpin' around (ain't nobody humpin' around)
No matter what they say
No it ain't that way
Ain't nobody humpin' around
Nobody
Nobody 
Nobody 
Nobody 
Nobody 
Humpin' around babe

Girl you said you love me
And you said you trust me
Why do you think I'm foolin' around
I can't stand the pressure
You know I'm yours forever
Ain't nobody, nobody, humpin' around

Get up off my back
Save a heart attack
Ain't nobody humpin' around (ain't nobody humpin' around)
No matter what they say
No it ain't that way
Ain't nobody humpin' around
Nobody
Nobody 
Nobody 
Nobody 
Nobody 
Humpin' around babe

Get up off my back
Save a heart attack
Ain't nobody humpin' around (ain't nobody humpin' around)
No matter what they say
No it ain't that way
Ain't nobody humpin' around
Nobody
Nobody 
Nobody 
Nobody 
Nobody 
Humpin' around babe
