messin' around
trying to get me
They do things cause they know
my girl is away
they try to upset me
how can I hold out,
where is that girl now
but the truth really is
I don't worry cause I love you baby so, That...
No matter where my baby is
she never leaves me without love
She gives it up till I get enough
then I'm alright
'Til my baby comes home
if she stays away for long
she calls me on the phone
I jump up when I hear her voice
then I'm alright
'Til my baby comes home
I get weak in the knees
my hands start to shakin'
head gets to achin'
is she thinkin' of me
or feelin' the fire
with some other guy, yeah
I cant believe I can be
worried about her
I shouldn't doubt her
cause our thing is for real
and I don't worry
cause I know, I know, I know...
No matter where my baby is

Every night when I sleep

She gives it up till I get enough
