Baby, here I stand before you
With my heart in my hand
I put it to you mama
Hoping that you'll understandHey yeah, baby
Mama, please don't dog me 'round
I would rather love you, baby
Than anyone else I know in townThis is my confession, mama
And I fell by all your charm
It seems that I'm in Heaven, mama
When you hold me in your armsWell, baby
Can I have you for myself?
If I can't have you, baby
I don't want nobody elseOh, when my days are long and dreary
And the sun refuse to shine
I would never weep low and lonely
If I knew that you were mineWell, baby
Make everything alright
And I have you too baby
Or will it be tomorrow nightWell, baby
Don't you want a man like me
Well, baby
Don't you want a man like me
You think only about the future
Forget it about your used to be
