Lyrics
Ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
My baby and I are back together again
Lovin' is better than it's ever been
If it weren't for the trials we've been through
I'd never have the courage to come back to you
We're all entitled to make a mistake
We got to prepare for some heartbreak
I as earnin' my man, while I was learnin' my man
Something you, young girls, might not understand
No pain (No pain), no pain (No pain)
No gain (No gain), no
No pain (No pain), no pain (No pain)
No gain (No gain)
There was an old lady sittin' under a tree
She called me over and she said to me
"My days left here may not be long
I wouldn't waste my time tellin' you nothin' wrong
But love is a flower that needs the sun and the rain
A little bit of pleasure's worth a whole lot of pain
If you learn this secret, how to forgive
A longer and better life you'll live"
No pain (No pain), no pain (No pain)
No gain (No gain), mmm
No pain (No pain), no pain (No pain)
No gain (No gain)
Anything worth havin' at all is worth workin' for and waitin' for
Some of my closest friends have thought they had that thing on a string
Just 'cause their man was bringin' em flowers and candy and all kinds of gifts
Mmm-mmm honey, some gifts are just to make him feel better while he's on his guilt trip
About the night before, you know what I mean
Especially when you know you haven't been doin' the things you should do
Think about it, what is the man tryin' to tell you
Sometimes flowers mean "Maybe we should just be friends"
You get my drift?
Hang if you can hang
No pain, no gain
In order to get something you got to give something
In order to be something you got to go through something
Be a cook in the kitchen, a lady in the streets
You can't show your teeth to every guy you meet
It's alright to be a little sweet
But be a mama with the kids and you know what in the sheets
No pain (No pain), no pain (No pain)
No gain (No gain)
Oh, no pain (No pain), no pain (No pain)
No gain (No gain)
See, you can't give up 'cause times get hard
It's just that old evil devil tryna to keep us apart
Say, "Devil! you ain't getting nothin' here
I'm holding to my man and have no fear"
No pain (No pain), no pain (No pain)
No gain (no gain)
No, no pain (No pain), no pain (No pain)
No gain (No gain)
Oh, no pain (No pain), no pain (No pain)
No gain (No gain)
No-no-no-no pain (No pain, no pain), no-no-no-no-no-no-no pain (No gain)
No-no pain, no-no pain (No pain), no-no pain (No pain), no pain (No gain), no pain
No pain (No pain, no pain, no gain)
In order to get something (No pain), give something (No pain)
To be something (No gain) you got to go through something
(No pain, no pain, no gain)
Oh, no pain (No pain), no pain (No pain)
No gain (No gain)
No-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no (No pain)
No-no-no-no (No pain, no gain)
No, no pain (No pain), no pain (No pain)
No gain (No gain)
You will not gain anything (No pain, no pain)
Without (No gain) goin' through some pain
No-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no
No pain (No pain), no pain (No pain)
No gain (No gain)
(No pain, no pain, no gain)
No pain (No pain), no pain (No pain)
No pain (No gain), no gain, no pain, no gain
Get something (No pain, no pain)
You got to go through something (No gain)
No pain (No pain), no pain (No pain)
No gain (No gain)
Hear me when I say no pain, no gain (No pain), no pain, no gain (No pain)
No pain, no gain (No gain)
And that's enough
