Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, yeah, pretty baby, listen to what I say
You will always pay my way
Looka here, pretty baby
Remember what you say
"Daddy, I will always bring you my bread"
I feel so bad, I just can't take it
Come on, honey, and let's make it
[Verse 2]
Baby, you know you've gotta move
Ain't no stopping, ain't no groove
Baby, you know we've gotta move
Ain't no stopping, ain't no groove
Baby, you know we've gotta move
Oh move, oh move, move, move
[Chorus]
I work hard every day
And give you all of my pay
And all I can do, pretty baby
Is get on my knees and pray
[Verse 3]
Hey baby, you can't leave me this way
But I want to tell you
That I ought to make it today
Tell me, tell me, tell me, baby, tell me
You know I feel so bad
I just can't take it
Come on, and let's make it
[Chorus]
I work hard every day
And give you all of my pay
And all I can do, pretty baby
Is get on my knees and pray
[Outro]
You know, I feel so bad, I just can't take it
Come on, and let's make it
