"I Want You Back" was the third track on one of AJR's old albums, Born and Bred. It was deleted after the release of the I'm Ready EP, and most recordings of the song have been taken down.

Lyrics[]
[Intro]
Uh huh huh, let me tell you now, uh huh
[Verse 1]
When I had you to myself, I didn't want you around
Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd
Then someone picked you from the bunch, one glance was all it took
Now it's much too late for me to take a second look
[Chorus]
Oh, baby, give me one more chance (show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me (back in your hands)
Oh darling, I was blind to let you go (let you go baby)
Now since I see you in his arms (I want you back)
Yes I do, now (I want you back)
Ooh, ooh baby (I want you back)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (I want you back)
Now, now, now, now
[Verse 2]
Trying to live without your love is one long, stupid night
Let me show you girl, that I know wrong from right
Every step you walk on, I leave tear stains on the ground
Oh, followin' the girl, I didn't even wander out
Let me tell you now
[Chorus]
Oh, baby, give me one more chance (show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me (back in your hands)
Oh darling, I was blind to let you go (let you go baby)
And now since I see you in his arms, uh huh
[Instrumental]
All I want, all I need
All I need!
Oh, give me one more chance (Tell you that I love you)
Baby (baby)
Baby (baby)
Baby (I want you back)
Forget what happened then (I want you back)
Let me live again
[Outro]
Tell him I need one more chance
To tell you that I love you, baby (I want you back)
Yes, I do now (I want you back)
Ooh, ooh baby
I want you back
