Haaaahhhh Hahhhhhh [Bobby laughs] You gotta learn today to look at things right on -- Ooohh yeah [chorus sings] Black is Black, White is White, that's a proven fact -- And even goes the same -- when it comes down to a woman The greatest gift god could give man, Me and You Y'all can understand where I'm comin' from You've got somebody that you love -- I don't believe in playin' hard to get for somebody you might already have -- Listen to Me [Chorus:] OOOOHHHH You gotta stop fussin' over the ladies Beatin' em and mistreatin' em And leaving them with a baby Ya gotta start them right Huggin and lovin and bein real nice Although at times -- they be tempting And sometimes they get ya' old and grey But a woman was made to love One change in this sound like a sleigh
What I'm tryin to say, Yaalll If you can't give her love -- Give her up And If You can't give her up -- make up your mind -- Oh Give her up -- or give her her freedom I don't mean that a woman run wild And get a job every once in a while -- OOOOHHH Don't get up -- get her up at home Cause you don't want to hurt == just leave her alone There's a lot of men -- I don't know that would like to be your -- who would accept a ready made family and be the things for ya' woman that you should be doing -- Heeeyyyy, Heeyyyy If you can't give her love -- Give her up And If You can't give her up -- make up your mind -- Oh Give her up -- or give her her freedom Ohhh, Baby -- My, My My, My, My ba-by
