Baby, here I stand before you With my heart in my hand I put it to you mama Hoping that you'll understand Hey yeah, baby Mama, please don't dog me 'round I would rather love you, baby Than anyone else I know in town This 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 arms Well, baby Can I have you for myself? If I can't have you, baby I don't want nobody else Oh, 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 mine Well, baby Make everything alright And I have you too baby Or will it be tomorrow night Well, 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
