Cryin' baby's on the doorstep
Helpless as can be
Lady of the evenin', set your mind free
Growin' up in a ghetto, never seen a tree, ohIf you don't understand the words to the song
It's all you, it's all me
If you don't understand the words to the song
It's all you, it's all me, yeahIf you try to make it better, try to fold 'em in
You'll take it from your pocket, you take it from within, yeah
You take it from your bride y'all, you're right back where you've been
It's sort of like a see saw, up and down againYour key is indication, yeahIf you don't understand the words to the song
It's all you, it's all me
If you don't understand, don't get me wrong
It's all you, it's all me, yeahGet down y'all, oh yeahIf you don't understand the words to the song
It's all me, it's all you
If you don't understand, don't get me wrong
It's all me, it's all youGet down y'allWhile you made it on the doorstep
Growin' up in a ghetto, never seen a treeDon't understand the words to the song
It's all me, it's all you
Don't understand, don't get me wrong
It's all me, it's all you
