Lyrics
If you look into your heart
With a positive mind
Take some inventory
Of your woman and your glory
Leave the bad things behind
Everybody's got a story, yes they do
About love and the good things
But all the spices of your life
You have got to pay the price
If you know what I mean, yeah
Tellin' everybody I know
How a girl becomes some pride
When I thought there was nothing left
I do believe I found myself
I wanna give it to you baby
So if you look into your heart
With a positive mind
Take some inventory
Of your woman and your glory
Leave the bad things behind
I know my man, he really loves me
We don't have that everyday
I know my man really needs me
And whatever he wanna do
I wanna do it with you baby, hey yeah, yeah yeah
Doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo
Oh mercy baby, mercy baby
Doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Love is all I need to give
And it is true y'all
Now that I see what he's given to me
And whatever he wanna do
I wanna do it with you, baby
Baby, loving you more and more and more
And giving you all and all I need
Yeah, yeah, mercy baby
Loving you more and more and more
And giving you all and all I need
Ooh baby
Loving you more
And giving you all and all
Mercy baby, mercy baby, mercy baby
