Lyrics: [Intro] (Oh, no) (Oh, no, no) [Verse 1] You'll never make me stay, so take your weight off of me I know your every move, so won't you just let me be? I've been here times before, but I was too blind to see That you seduce every man, this time, you won't seduce me [Pre-Chorus] You're saying, "That's okay, hey, baby, do what you please I have the stuff that you want, I am the thing that you need" She looked me deep in the eyes, she's touching me so to start She says, "There's no turning back", she trapped me in her heart [Chorus] Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, let me be (Oh no, oh no, oh no) [Verse 2] She likes the boys in the band, she knows when they come to town Every musician's fan after the curtain comes down She waits at backstage doors for those who have prestige Who promise fortune and fame, a life that's so carefree [Pre-Chorus] She's saying, "That's okay, hey, baby, do what you want I'll be your night-loving thing, I'll be the freak you can taunt And I don't care what you see, I wanna go too far I'll be your everything if you make me a star" [Chorus] Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana [Bridge] Diana, Diana Dirty Diana It's Dia—, yeah, yeah Come on! [Interlude] No, no, oh, stop this [Verse 3] She said, "I have to go home, 'cause I'm real tired, you see But I hate sleeping alone, why don't you come with me?" I said, "My baby's at home, she's probably worried tonight I didn't call on the phone to say that I'm alright" [Pre-Chorus] Diana walked up to me, she said, "I'm all yours tonight" At that, I ran to the phone saying, "Baby, I'm alright" I said, "But unlock the door, 'cause I forgot the key" She said, "He's not coming back because he's sleeping with me" [Chorus] Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana [Outro] Come on! (Dirty Diana, no) Come on! (Dirty Diana, no) Come on! (Dirty Diana, no) Come on! (Dirty Diana) (Hey, hey) Come on! (Dirty Diana, no) (Hey, baby, won't you—) Come on! (Dirty Diana, no) (Hey, baby, won't you—) Come on! (Dirty Diana, no) (Hey, baby, won't you—) Come on! (Dirty Diana) (Hey, baby, won't you—) Come on! Aaow! (Dirty Diana, no) Come on! (Dirty Diana, no) Come on! (Dirty Diana, no) Come on! (Dirty Diana) Come on! (Dirty Diana, no) Come on! (Dirty Diana, no) Come on!
