It's gonna take a lot
To drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men
Or more could ever do

No, I don't know
What you do when you do what you do, boy
But baby, baby, baby, baby
I don't even care no more

You've got me so
Caught up in this careless voodoo, boy
But baby, baby, baby, babe
I wanna be there for sure

'Cause every time that we rendezvous
I don't wanna go back home
And every time that I'm holding you
There ain't no way to let you go

You're shining down, boy, the game is through
And I don't wanna play no more
'Cause the only one that I want is you
So tell me what you wanna do because baby

'Cause I just can't stay away
There's nothing that I can do
And baby, you can have your way
Just as long as I can have you

And I'd do anything, baby
Do anything for ya
You, and I'd do anything, baby
Do anything for ya

Now I've been told
That you got you got you a few
And you ain't sure
But baby, baby, baby, baby
You gon' wanna let him go

'Cause I've been sold
On you, I don't check for dues no more
'Cause baby, baby, baby, baby
You the way I wanna roll

'Cause every time that we rendezvous
I don't wanna go back home
And every time that I'm holding you
There ain't no way to let you go

You're shining down, boy, the game is through
Listen, I don't wanna play no more
'Cause the only one that I want is you
So tell me what you wanna do because baby

'Cause I just can't stay away
There's nothing that I can do
And baby, you can have your way
Just as long as I can have you

'Cause I'd do anything, baby
Do anything for ya
'Cause I'd do anything, baby
Do anything for ya

I'm down, anything, boy, you and me
It's the way you know it's supposed to be
'Cause I would do anything for you

I'm down, anything, boy, you and me
Should be doing what comes naturally
'Cause I would do anything for you

'Cause I just can't stay away
There's nothing that I can do
And baby, you can have your way
Just as long as I can have you

See, I'd do anything, baby
Do anything for ya
See, I'd do anything, baby
Do anything for ya

'Cause I just can't stay away
There's nothing that I can do
And baby, you can have your way
Just as long as I can have you

'Cause I'd do anything, baby
Do anything for ya
'Cause I'd do anything, baby
Do anything for ya

'Cause I'd do anything, baby
Do anything for ya
'Cause I'd do anything, baby
Do anything
