Try Me Out

Try me out,

Try me out,

Hey, See you need another lover

I can be the hole in the head;

Shot down a couple times out of love sky,

now you'd rather be alone instead,

and i get it, i once been twice shy make a fool of her once,

but never two times

I'm a man with a number of flaws,

I won't lie but that don't mean pass me by



[bridge]

I don't want to play like I know what you've been through, 'Cause I don't

I don't want to make you think I'll waste your time too, 'Cause I won't.

I don't want you to look at me like these other dudes, because I'm not.

Disappoint you girl, I wont do it; all I'm asking is a chance to prove it.



[chorus]

Try me out, baby give me a shot; what you think I am,

let me show you I'm not

Maybe we'll be a little, maybe we'll be a lot; maybe

I'm what you're missing, or maybe I'm not

[x2]



I'm a man on a mission,

Wanna be the kind of man you missin',

The kinda man that pays attention when you talk

go on girl lemme listen

'Cause I get it, somebody stepped on your heart before,

Somebody made you cry,

I'm a man with a number of flaws, I won't lie,

but that don't mean pass me by



[bridge]

I don't want to play like I know what you've been through, 'Cause I don't

I don't want to make you think I'll waste your time too, 'Cause I won't.

I don't want you to look at me like these other dudes, because I'm not.

Disappoint you girl, I wont do it;

All I'm asking is a chance to prove it.



[chorus]

Try me out, baby give me a shot; what you think I am,

let me show you I'm not

Maybe we'll be a little, maybe we'll be a lot; maybe

I'm what you're missing, maybe I'm not

Try Me Out

Ne-Yo's "Try Me Out" stands as a quintessential example of mid-to-late 2000s R&B, blending smooth vocal delivery with an upbeat, danceable rhythm that defined the genre's evolution during that era. The track showcases Ne-Yo's signature ability to merge soulful melodies with contemporary pop sensibilities, creating a sound that was both commercially viable and critically respected. Released alongside other notable singles from his catalog, the song reflects his transition into a more polished, radio-friendly style while maintaining the emotional depth characteristic of his earlier work. As a standalone recording, it captures the vibrant energy of the time, serving as a testament to his growing influence in the modern R&B landscape and his capacity to craft hits that resonated with a broad audience.
