lirik lagu joe tex - it ain't gonna work baby
[verse 1]
well you finally got around to telling me you don’t love me, huh?
i wondered when you’d get around to it
but you know one thing, girl
i’ve known all along how you felt
as a matter of fact, i’ve known ever since last summer
but i just wanted to see how long it would take you to tell
i knew right after you and the baby got back from your vacation
i guess i should’ve gone with you
and maybe this wouldn’t have happened
but girl, you know i had to work
but then, another thing
if i can’t trust you outta my sight for three measly little weeks
without you falling head over heels in love
with some man that you’ve never seen before
like some little schoolgirl
i don’t guess we were meant for each other anyway, one more thing
when two people were in love as much as we were in love
and one lover stops lovin’, you can tell
even a fool can tell it
but i’m gon’ give you your freedom
and let you go on back to him
but just wait until i leave for work
wi~will you do that for me, please, ma’am?
’cause baby, i~i~i don’t think i can stand to see you leavin’ me
and takin’ my child for another man to raise
i’ll leave you some money on the kitchen table on my way out
and you leave a forwarding address
so the lawyer can send you the papers
i love you, baby
but i also wanna see you happy
a~and oh yeah, one more thing
you don’t have to tell me who he is
but would you~would you~would you do something for me?
i~i, i want you to tell me one thing
just tell me this, girl
[verse 2]
if you knew you didn’t love me, baby
why did you put up with me so long?
i would’ve understood, baby
much better than your leadin’ me on
’cause there a lot of people in the world, heh
just like you and i today
one is in love with someone else and, heh
just lookin’ for a chance to make that getaway
but when you got your body in one place
and your mind somewhere else, oh
it ain’t gonna work, baby, no~no~no~no
it just ain’t gonna work, baby, oh!
heh~ha (do~do~do)
[verse 3]
it ain’t gonna work, baby, no, ha
(do~do~do) it just ain’t gonna work, baby, no, heh
you just go on back to him then
don’t stay ’round here with me another day, no~no
because i realize now, baby
[outro]
i couldn’t’ve made you happy anyway
you go and try to do some good for yourself, now
