Jeffrey Osborne - Eenie Meenie Lyrics

I don’t know where you are. We try to enjoy each other. Are you referring to me?? I am hear with you all the time when I on line. I feel better with you around even if we are doing other things. Then suddenly everything is different. I believe you are conflicted about us. I know love is much more. We both know it is not that easy. I want to be close to you as well. What makes you think. The past I try to leave there. But others don’t. I have nothing to do with it. You have someone a real problem. Not if we stop going back and forth every 2 hours.

Pagi ini saat saya dan anakkmu Grace naik motor menuju ke her highschool dia menyanyikan ini lagu.It's like a nice surprise since she's familiar to this song.We sang ennie menie by Jeffrey Osborne on the way to her school.

Es mejor que el puto justin

God bless this song. When I was 6, I started studying English especially because of it.

Jeffrey, you are the best! Love all of your songs

💃🕺👯

Maravillosa elegante rica música

Saludos desde Santiago de Chile.

Increible la última vez que escuché este hermoso tema fue hace 40 años caminando pot la playa en Quintero Chile escuchando con mi personal Stereo. Muchas gracias por compartirlo

Bike riding to Venice, Redondo and Santa Monica Beach listening to the song and feeling good.

".....so if it's alright with you.....I wont take a sec-UNNNND chance....." love that line.

My cut from back in the day

Ohhhhh that piano!

This is therapy music!

great song from jeffrey dont make songs like this anymore shame great piano solo didnt know it was george duke

You won my heart
It's just the start, babe
There's much more to love
Than the way you're thinkin' of

To wear my ring
Worth somethin' special
Now you close the door
The ring thrown on the floor

But if it's alright with you
I won't take a second chance
I don't have to take it
And you don't have to fake it anymore

Eenie meenie minie mo
Catch a lover by the toe
That's the game of love we play
It doesn't have to be that way

Eenie meenie minie mo
Catch a lover by the toe
That's the game of love we play
It doesn't have to be that way

We took a vow
Never to part, babe
Now you're tellin' me
That you have a change of heart

Now it's my turn
To feel like cryin'
Hope some day you'll see
What you meant to me

But if it's alright with you
I won't take a second chance
I don't have to take it
And you don't have to fake it anymore

Eenie meenie minie mo
Catch a lover by the toe
That's the game of love we play
It doesn't have to be that way

Eenie meenie minie mo
Catch a lover by the toe
That's the game of love we play
It doesn't have to be that way, yeah

So if it's alright with you
I won't take a second chance
I don't have to take it
You don't have to fake it anymore

Eenie meenie minie mo
Catch a lover by the toe
That's the game of love we play
It doesn't have to be that way

Eenie meenie minie mo
Catch a lover by the toe
Said that's the game of love we play
It doesn't have to be that way

Eenie meenie minie mo
Catch a lover by the toe
That's the game of love we play
It doesn't have to be that way

Say eenie meenie minie mo
Catch a lover by the toe
Said that's the game of love we play
It doesn't have to be that way

Eenie meenie minie mo
Catch a lover by the toe
That's the game of love we play

Eenie meenie minie mo
Catch a lover by the toe

What would I do without YouTube!!!!!

Simply wonderful

Loved this song for almost 36 years now, still sounds so fresh and new

Always loved this cut by Jeffrey Osborne and he tore this cut up.one of the best r&b singers ever

I woke up from a nap w this song in my head just now. Thanks for posting it. I love this song.

Just saw him in concert yesterday in chicago he was great at 70 years old

Miluji ten song

I miss working out at the gym to this song.

Finally!

I remember this album being in my house as a kid and my parents will play this album every now and then and I will look at his photo I thought he was so handsome back in the day LOL

LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT, BEEN LOVING ME SOME JEFFREY OSBORNE SINCE HIS L.T.D. (LOVE, TOGETHERNESS, DEVOTION) DAYS!!!! NEVER BE ANOTHER!!!!

The late great George Duke on piano and piano solo.

Just started listening to this song & I cannot stop playing it.. I love it, especially at 3:38 when he goes: "IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THAT WAAAAYYYYYYY"

I remember as a child visiting my Uncle in the Bronx the summer this came out. Looking out the bedroom window on a bright clear day looking at the cityview and listening to this song on WBLS .

What a fantastic song.

I'm a 70's baby and so I was fortunte to grow up on all these great musicians, singers and composers and Mr. Osborne stole my heart at or about 9 or 10 and btw- Mr. Osborne, I'm a grown a$s lady now who is still very much infactuated with your likeness so give me a ring if you're ever in Washington, DC. XO~XO

True story I was getting in a cab back in Chicago years ago heard this song playing on the radio at that point I knew Jeff would make it as a solo artist fast forward 34 years and he is still doing it. I guess I got that one right.

Thank God for you tube a place you can go and listen to real music, they just don't make this kind of music anymore

Ain't that the truth!!!

You're so right.

Check out Lucky Daye.

my mother said I danced to this album while be conceived in her woom- interesting even appreciate this album now that I have been growing up I know how to appreciate an artist like Jeffrey Osborne he is truly one of the best talents in the Golden age of real R&B music! no doubt the best! and this song is a classic sincere straight from the heart and real! this is real music! wish more of this music could be revived it's timeless and at the same time it feels so good to hear this and know real music like this still lives and thrives!

CLASSIC OLD SCHOOL WE NEED MORE MUSIC LIKE THIS

"You win the heart, it's just the start babe. There's much more to love than the way you're thinking of. To wear my ring is something special. Now you close the door the ring fell on the floor. But if it's alright with you I won't take a second chance. I don't have to take it and you don't have to fake it anymore. Eenie meenie minnie mo, catch a lover by the toe, that's the game of love we play it doesn't have to be that way. "
Don't play games know when to throw in the towel..

"you want my heart..its just the start babe

"catch a lover by the toe"...i love that line lol

Smooth R & B From Jeffrey Osborne!!!! Great Song!!!! We need more artist like this!!!

why does it have to be JB first before Jeffrey Osborne. Darn! it took me a year to find it here... IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THAT WAAAAY....

martin bendigo Also Gregory Abbott’s Shake You Down sampled the line of Eenie Meenie Mi Ne Mo at almost for the last part.

JO's Eenie meenie wins over JB's Eenie meenie.

@Vziera

Me too, the moment i heard this song playing on Crossover 105.1 i rushed into my laptop and googled it and had a hard time finding it at first because of the crap hit song of JB with a similar title on it... but in the end i did finally found it :)

Just heard this from radio, instantly like :D

I do not know why, but the beginning of this song reminds me Mornin ' sung by Al Jarreau

I love your songs Soulman

Soulman, i miss you !

Also reminds me of the beginning of "Adventures in the Land of Music" by Dynasty.

It could be because George Duke had a hand in the production of this album and he is a very good friend and produced some tracks of Mr Jarreau

Kira 1892, thanks for the info about him coming to BB's in Manhattan. Hopefully he'll reach back & sing this one....that would make my night!!!

@TDPROMO I love this Man!!!!!!!!!! So excited he is coming to BB Kings in Manhattan in September!!!!!!

Jeffrey Osborne was the man!! This song is like that!! So..So..So..So..many great memories. Soulman163...thanks for this great post
