How Can I Get Next To You
How can I get next to you
When everyone else tryin' to get next to you
Listen, baby
How can I get next to you
When everyone else tryin' to get next to you
I heard Bobby Womack told you on the telephone line
That girl you were runnin' out of time
He said, 'That's the way I feel about you"
Ooh baby, That's the way I feel about you"
How can I get next to you
When everyone else tryin' to get next to you
Tell me that, girl
How can I get next to you
When everyone else tryin' to get next to you
Listen, baby
You said goodbye to Womack and split the scene
I thought I had it made and I heard about you and Al Green
And I said, "Let's, ought to stay together"
"When the times are good and bad, happy or sad"
Baby, baby, baby
Don't seem fair sometime, baby
Listen, baby
Johnnie Taylor told you that "I believe in you"
Rufus Thomas tryin' to walk your dog too, now
James Brown said, "Please don't go"
Clarence Carter claimed "I'm too weak to fight any more',' now baby
Tell me
How can I get next to you
When everyone else tryin' to get next to you, baby
How can I get next to you
When everyone else tryin' to get next to you, baby
Even Marvin Gaye, you told him, "Let's get it on"
And he said you were his joy
And he been waitin' for too long on you, baby
How can I get next to you, oh baby
When everyone else tryin' to get next to you
Hey baby, baby, oh baby
Tryin' to get next to you, baby
That's all I wanna do
When everyone else tryin' to get next to you
Listen, baby
How can I get next to you
When everyone else tryin' to get next to you
I heard Bobby Womack told you on the telephone line
That girl you were runnin' out of time
He said, 'That's the way I feel about you"
Ooh baby, That's the way I feel about you"
How can I get next to you
When everyone else tryin' to get next to you
Tell me that, girl
How can I get next to you
When everyone else tryin' to get next to you
Listen, baby
You said goodbye to Womack and split the scene
I thought I had it made and I heard about you and Al Green
And I said, "Let's, ought to stay together"
"When the times are good and bad, happy or sad"
Baby, baby, baby
Don't seem fair sometime, baby
Listen, baby
Johnnie Taylor told you that "I believe in you"
Rufus Thomas tryin' to walk your dog too, now
James Brown said, "Please don't go"
Clarence Carter claimed "I'm too weak to fight any more',' now baby
Tell me
How can I get next to you
When everyone else tryin' to get next to you, baby
How can I get next to you
When everyone else tryin' to get next to you, baby
Even Marvin Gaye, you told him, "Let's get it on"
And he said you were his joy
And he been waitin' for too long on you, baby
How can I get next to you, oh baby
When everyone else tryin' to get next to you
Hey baby, baby, oh baby
Tryin' to get next to you, baby
That's all I wanna do
