No I don’t wanna love you
Cause I know how you are
That’s why I’ve been staying away from you
That’s why I haven’t called you

Cause I know you could possess my body
I know you could make me scrawl
I know could have me shaking
I know you could have me climbing walls

That’s why I don’t wanna love you

Cause I know how you are
Sure you say you’re right on and you’re righteous
But with me I’d know you’d be right off
Cause you know I could possess your body too, don’t cha?
You know I could make you crawl

And just as hard as I’d fall for you, boy
Well You know you’d fall for me harder

That’s why I don’t wanna love you

Cause I’d know what you’d do to my heart
You’d scorch it just like a hot iron
Leave me burning alone in the dark

Cause I know you’d could make me suffer
I know you could drive me mad
I know you’d just take me in a circle
And when it got real I know you’d disappear

That’s why I ain’t gonna love you

Cause I know you like to be in charge
But with me you know you couldn’t control me, don’t cha?
Cause you know I’d make you drop your guard
Cause I’d have you eating your ego
I’d make you pocket your pride

And just as hard as I’d be loving you, boy
Well you know you’d be loving me harder

That’s why I don’t wanna love you

No no no
I said I don’t wanna love you
No no no no no no
I said I ain’t gonna
No no no
I said I don’t wanna
No no no no no

No I don’t wanna love you
Cause I know how you are
That’s why I’ve been staying away from you
That’s why I haven’t called you

Cause I know you could possess my body
I know you could make me scrawl
I know could have me shaking
I know you could have me climbing walls

That’s why I don’t wanna love you

Cause I know how you are
Sure you say you’re right on and you’re righteous
But with me I’d know you’d be right off
Cause you know I could possess your body too, don’t cha?
You know I could make you crawl

And just as hard as I’d fall for you, boy
Well You know you’d fall for me harder

That’s why I don’t wanna love you

Cause I’d know what you’d do to my heart

Gals, He’s a fine fine thang
(Ain’t he fine?)
Lord knows, he sure is fine
(Ain’t he fine?)
Gals, I can’t help myself
(She’s gonna do it)
(She’s gonna do it)

I'm going to do it until the cows come home
And when my goose gets loose
She's gonna know
I'm still be getting it on
With him around, now
(Move it, move it)

I’m gonna move it slow like a mule
(Go on and move it, gal)
I’m gonna love him funky free and foolish
I’m gonna do my best
And try hard to get him

(Ain’t he fine)
Just take a look at that child
(Ain’t he fine)
He’s enough to drive a poor gal wild
(Ain’t he fine)
Take him in, check him out
I’m gonna!
(She’s gonna love him)
(She’s gonna love him)

I’m gonna shoo-b-doop all night
(Go on and love him, gal. Go on and love him, gal)
I’m gonna try him out until the sunrise
And when clock strikes twelve
(Shoo-b-doop and cop him)

(Ain’t he fine?)
Gals, He’s a fine fine thang
(Ain’t he fine?)
Lord knows, he sure is fine
(Ain’t he fine?)
Gals, I can’t help myself
(She’s gonna do it)
(She’s gonna do it)
(She’s gonna do it)
(She’s gonna do it)

Yes, I’m gonna do it
(Shoo-b-doop and cop him)
(Shoo-b-doop and cop him)
I’m gonna do it till the cows come home
(Shoo-b-doop and cop him)
(Shoo-b-doop and cop him)
I’m gonna do it till the chicken croaks
(Shoo-b-doop and cop him)
(Shoo-b-doop and cop him)
I’m gonna move it slow like a mule
(Shoo-b-doop and cop him)
(Shoo-b-doop and cop him)
I’m gonna do it yes I’m gonna do it
(Do it, do it!)
(Move it, move it!)
(Shoo-b-doop and cop him)
(Shoo-b-doop and cop him)
Gals, he’s a fine fine thang
Lord knows, lord knows,
That’s boy he’s sure enough fine

He was a big freak!

I used to beat him with a turquoise chain, yeah
When I was his woman, I pleased him
I’d lead him to the tip
When I was his mistress, oh oh
I gave him cheap thrills
When I was his princess, silk and satin and lace
I'd wear for him

He was a big freak!
flim, flam, floozy, fantasy

When I was his housewife
I’d scrub him, I’d love him, I’d cook his meals
When I was his geisha, oh oh
I got down and (?)
When I was his flower
I’d answer to the name of Rosie May

He was a big freak!
I used to say all kinds of dirty thangs

When I was his mother
I’d hold him like a baby in my arms
When I was his lover
Oh, I drive him out of his mind
When I was his daydream
Ain’t no need to tell you what that means

I’d tie him up with my turquoise chain
I used to tie him up
Yeah, he couldn’t get enough
Nah, he’d be on the floor
Oh, begging me for more

He was a big freak!
I used to say all kinds of dirty thangs
He was a big freak!
Film, flam, floozy, fantasy
He was a big freak!

Kept his mind entertained all the time
I’d get him off with my turquoise chain

I used to whip him
I used to beat him
Oh, he used to dig it
Yeah, he used to really dig it

He was a big freak!
Pain was his middle name
He was a big freak!
He used to laugh when I’d make him cry
He was big freak!
A big freak, yes he was!
I used to whip him with my turquoise chain
