PAULINE & BOBBY FEAT. PAULINE SHIVERS & BOBBY JONES
“No Messin Around”
DESCRIPTION:
“No Messin’ Around” is a no-nonsense, foot-stomping slab of late-‘60s soul-funk fire. Over a burning groove, Pauline lays it down—she’s not here for games, lies, or two-timing tricks. She’s worked, sacrificed, lifted her man up, and now he’s out running wild? Not a chance. Bobby fires back, but there’s no smooth talking his way out of this one. It’s raw, it’s righteous, and it’s dripping with the grit of real-life heartbreak.
