Somebody told me
Boy everything she wants is everything she sees
I guess I must have loved you
'Cause I said you were the perfect girl for me
Maybe
Now we're six months older
Everything you want and everything you see
Is out of reach not good enough
Don't know what the hell you want from me
Everything she wants everything she needs
It's just a matter of time
I said everything she wants everything she needs
It's just a matter of time
Somebody tell me
Won't you tell me
Why I work so hard for you
All to give you money
All to give you money
Everything she needs
Everything she wants
Some people work for a living
Some people work for fun
Girl I just work for you
They told me marriage was a give and take
Well you show me you can take
You've got some giving to do do
And now you tell me that you're having my baby
I'll tell you that I'm happy if you want me to
One step further and my back will break
If my best isn't good enough
How can it be good enough for two
Everything she wants everything she needs
It's just a matter of time
I said everything she wants everything she needs
It's just a matter of time
Somebody tell me
Won't you tell me
Why I work so hard for you
To give you money
All to give you money
Oh now baby
Everything you want
Everything you need
How could you settle for a boy like me
When all I could see was the end of the week
All the things that we sign
The things that we buy
Ain't gonna keep us together
Girl it's just a matter of time
My situation
Never changes
Walking in that manner through that door
Like a stranger
But the wages
I give you all you say you want more
And all I can see was the end of the week
All the things that we sign
The things that we buy
Ain't gonna keep us together
Girl it's just a matter of time
Everything she wants everything she needs
It's just a matter of time
I tell you
Everything she wants
Everything she needs
It's just a matter of time
Somebody
Somebody
Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me somebody
Somebody
Tell me why
I said
