Breaking My Back
Ooh, ooh
(Ooh)
She always treats me right
Doesn't ask me for a thing
When I come home at night
She treats me like a king
She floats just like an angel
Leaves me to the bed
And wraps herself around me
Place kisses on my head (yeah)
That's why I'm breaking my back
To keep her my front (front)
I love to get my baby
What she wants
I'm breaking my back (back)
To keep her my front (front)
I love to get my baby
What she wants
Oh, yes, I do
Whoa, whoa, yeah
Whoa, whoa, breaking my back
Breaking my back
To keep her my front
Breaking my back, yeah
To keep her my front, yeah
I show up every day
Work my fingers to the bone
But what keeps me going
Is the way I'm loved at home
Everybody wants her
She's looking so damn fine
But I'll always be hers
She will always be mine (yeah)
That's why I'm breaking my back
To keep her my front (front)
I love to get my baby
What she wants
