Oh, oh, whoo
Oh baby, hey baby, whoo, whoo baby
Do do do do, do do do do
Do do do do ooh ooh, do do do do, yeah

If you look into your heart
With a positive mind
Take self-inventory of your woman and your glory
Leave the bad things behind (ooh)

Everybody's got a story (yes, they do)
About love and the good things
But for the spices of your life
You have got to pay the price
If you know what I mean (yeah)

Telling everybody, out loud
How a girl becomes some proud
When I thought that there was nothing left
I do believe I found myself
And I want to give it to you, baby, oh yes, I do (yeah yeah)

So if you look into your heart
With a positive mind
You can take self-inventory of your woman and your glory
And leave the bad things behind (whoo)

I know my man
He really loves me we don't have that everyday
I know my man he really needs me
And what ever he wanna do I wanna do it with you, baby (yeah yeah)

Do do do do, do do do do, do do do do oh mercy baby, mercy baby
Do do do do, do do do do

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Jump on the night
Love's not an easy game
And he's strong and he's straight
Now that I see
What he's givin' me
A whatever he wanna do
I wanna do it with you baby

Loving you more and more (loving you more)
And giving you all and all of me (yeah yeah)
Mercy, baby
Loving you more and more and more and more
I'm giving you all and all of me

Ooh baby
Loving you more, giving you all and all of me (more, more)
Mercy, baby
Mercy, baby
Mercy, baby
