Let me be your lovemaker
Let me be your soul shaker
Let me be your lovemaker
Let me be your soul shaker

Around this time last summer
When you and I first met
I thought I was cool
Living by the rules
Trying to play hard to get

So you found some good time chick
To give you the love you needed
I didn't know a thing
About the thrills love could bring
I was young, selfish, and conceited

I know you don't think I'm ready
But open your eyes and see
As sure as my name is Betty
I can love away all your misery

So let me be your lovemaker
Let me be your soul shaker
Why don't ya, let me be your lovemaker
Let me be your soul shaker

About this time last year
I was blind to all the good things you said
The sweet words you spoke
I took them for a joke
Though they were strong enough to raise the dead

So you thought you wasted
Both your time and mine
But now I'm ready to do
What you want me to
'Cause I'm your woman
And I ain't lyin'

I know you don't think I'm ready, oo oo
But open your eyes and see
As sure as my name is Betty
I can love away all your misery

So, let me (umh) be your lovemaker (I need to be)
Let me be your soul shaker (umh)
Let me be your lovemaker
Let me be your soul shaker
Why don't let me be it baby, wow, hey baby, hey baby
I wanna be, I got ta got ta be, ooo

Don't it be nice baby
If ya let me be your lovemaker
Let me be good to ya
Honey, honey, yah
