Let Me Be Your Lovemaker
Let me be your lovemaker
Let me be your soul shaker
Let me be your lovemaker, mmm
Let me be your soul shaker
Around this time last summer
When you and I first met
I thought I was cool
Living by the rules
Trying to play hard to get
So you found some good-time chick
To give you the love you needed
I didn't know a thing
About the thrills love could bring
I was young, selfish, and conceited
I know you don't think I'm ready
But open your eyes and see
As sure as my name is Betty
I can love away all your misery!
So let me, mmm, be your lovemaker
Let me be your soul shaker
Why don't ya, Let me be your lovemaker
Let me be your soul shaker
About this time last year
I was blind to all the good things you said
The sweet words you spoke
I took them for a joke
Though they were strong enough raise the dead!
So you thought you wasted
Both your time and mine
But now I'm ready to do
What you want me to
'Cause I'm your woman, ha
And I ain't Lyin'
I know you don't think I'm ready, ooh, ooh
But open your eyes and see
As sure as my name is Betty
I can love away all your misery-hee!
So, Let me (mmm) be your lovemaker (I need to be)
Let me be your soul shaker (mmm)
Let me be your lovemaker
Let me be your soul shaker
Why don't let me be it, baby (Why don't ya let me be)
Woah-oh
Hey baby (Hey baby) hey baby (Hey baby)
I wanna be (I wanna be) I got ta, got ta be
Oooooh
Sho' be nice, baby
If ya let me be your love maker
Let me be good to ya
Honey, Honey, Yahhhhh!
Let me be your soul shaker
Let me be your lovemaker, mmm
Let me be your soul shaker
Around this time last summer
When you and I first met
I thought I was cool

Trying to play hard to get
So you found some good-time chick
