Give It Up or Let Me Go
Well, I told you, pretty baby
Such a long time ago
If I found you with another
Well, I'd walk right out your door
Whoa, you might call me crazy
But there's one thing you should know
Well, if you want me to love you
You've got to give it up or let me go
I know it's useless to be jealous
I couldn't tire you if I tried
But when I think of you messing behind my back
It brings a pain I just can't hide
Oh, baby, I've been true to you
And if I can make that sacrifice
Honey, you can do it too
Well, you come home drunk and nasty
You won't tell me where you've been
Just when things are nice and sweet
You go back out again
Why do you wanna mess up a good thing?
I'm gonna find me another man
One who wants to give me everything
Well, I told you, pretty baby
Such a long time ago
If I found you with another
Well, I'd walk right out your door
You might call me crazy
One thing you should know
Oh, honey, if you want me to love you
You've got to give it up or let me go
Oh, give it up now, boy
That's right
Oh, shake it, don't brake it
Such a long time ago
If I found you with another
Well, I'd walk right out your door
Whoa, you might call me crazy
But there's one thing you should know
Well, if you want me to love you
You've got to give it up or let me go
I know it's useless to be jealous
I couldn't tire you if I tried
But when I think of you messing behind my back
It brings a pain I just can't hide
Oh, baby, I've been true to you
And if I can make that sacrifice
Honey, you can do it too
Well, you come home drunk and nasty
You won't tell me where you've been
Just when things are nice and sweet
You go back out again
Why do you wanna mess up a good thing?
I'm gonna find me another man
One who wants to give me everything
Well, I told you, pretty baby
Such a long time ago
If I found you with another
Well, I'd walk right out your door
You might call me crazy
One thing you should know
Oh, honey, if you want me to love you
You've got to give it up or let me go
Oh, give it up now, boy
That's right
Oh, shake it, don't brake it
