Yes, yeah

Yeah

Mm-mmm-mmm

Mm-mm, mm-mmm

Now, I got a brown skin girl

Wit' her front tooth crowned with gold

'Take your time, make this one last

'cause it's the best one you got'

Now, I got a brown skin woman

Wit' her front tooth crowned with gold

She got a lien on my body

And a mortgage on my soul

Now, friend don't never let your good girl

Friend, just like this woman got me

'Yes, yes, yes, yes'

Friend, don't never let your good girl

Friend, just like this woman got me

'How she got you, did it?'

Got me stone crazy 'bout her

As a doggone fool can be

Yeah!

Now, I ain't gonna tell nobody

Baby, 'bout the way you do

'Take your time now an play it right'

Ain't gon' tell nobody

Baby, 'bout the way you do-ooo

'How you got, how'd I do?'

Said you always keep someone

Some fat-mouth followin' you.

Yeah, ha-ha-ha

Now, I tol' you once, now baby, now

Ain't gon' tell you no mo'

Umm-mmm-mmm

I done tol' you once, baby

Ain't gon' tell you no mo'

'Why?'

Next time I have to tell you

I'm sho' gonna let you go

Now, when you get you

One a-them funny woman

'Take your time, now'

She won't do to trust

Get you a 2X4, an I swear

I can strut yo' stuff

Mmm-hmm

Babe, an that's all I want

Just a little bit a-lovin'

An then you can be gone.
