Womack, Bobby - If You Can't Give Her Love (Give Her Up) Lyrics

Haaaahhhh Hahhhhhh [Bobby laughs]
You gotta learn today to look at things right on -- Ooohh yeah [chorus sings]
Black is Black, White is White, that's a proven fact --
And even goes the same -- when it comes down to a woman
The greatest gift god could give man, Me and You
Y'all can understand where I'm comin' from
You've got somebody that you love -- I don't believe in playin' hard to get
for somebody you might already have -- Listen to Me
[Chorus:] OOOOHHHH

You gotta stop fussin' over the ladies
Beatin' em and mistreatin' em
And leaving them with a baby

Ya gotta start them right
Huggin and lovin and bein real nice

Although at times -- they be tempting
And sometimes they get ya' old and grey
But a woman was made to love
One change in this sound like a sleigh
What I'm tryin to say, Yaalll

If you can't give her love --
Give her up
And If You can't give her up -- make up your mind -- Oh
Give her up -- or give her her freedom

I don't mean that a woman run wild
And get a job every once in a while -- OOOOHHH
Don't get up -- get her up at home
Cause you don't want to hurt == just leave her alone

There's a lot of men -- I don't know
that would like to be your --
who would accept a ready made family
and be the things for ya' woman that you should be doing --

Heeeyyyy, Heeyyyy

If you can't give her love --
Give her up
And If You can't give her up -- make up your mind -- Oh
Give her up -- or give her her freedom

Ohhh, Baby -- My, My My, My, My ba-by
