You can make me do what you wanna do
|
But you got to know how,
|
You can make me cry, you can make me sigh,
|
But you got to know how,
|
You can make me do like this, you can make me do like that,
|
Woh, baby, but you got to know how.
|
|
Once a pal of mine stole a guy of mine,
|
But I got him back, now,
|
It's the same old song, she couldn't keep him long,
|
'Cause she didn't know how.
|
Well, I love my man, I make him holler,
|
Woh, my,
|
Yessir, I really know how.
|
|
Technique ain't tough, if you care enough,
|
You can learn to know how,
|
I might drop a hint how to strike my flint
|
If you yearn to know how,
|
Well, don't tell me about the life you led,
|
Don't try to drink me into bed,
|
No, baby, no, that ain't the way how.
|
|
You got to take your time, you know it ain't no crime
|
If it lasts all night.
|
I think you'll be ideal when you begin to feel
|
That you're doin' right.
|
|
When you love me right, you hear me holler,
|
Woh, my,
|
Yessir, when you really know how.
|
|
[Instrumental break]
|
|
And if you stay with me, who knows how it will be
|
When we finally know how,
|
We'll get a house in town, no need to move around
|
When we really know how,
|
Well, there's tricks that I don't even know,
|
Ones we'll make up as we go.
|
Woh, mister, when we really know how.
|
Yes, mister, when we really know how.
