A Change
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm looking for a love maker
I ain't looking for no heart breaker
It ain't no fooling around with this
Ain't no fooling around with that
You've been playing the scene long enough
To know just where it's at
Some people call me selfish
Because I want you to myself
But it better be a freezing day in July
If I catch you with someone else
I wanna see a change in you, baby
I wanna see a change right away
I wanna see a change in you, baby
I wanna see a change in you today
If you don't this girl is gonna make you pay
If you don't this girl is gonna make you pay
I wanna see a big change (in you baby)
Oooh, a big change (in you baby)
Eeeh, a big change (in you baby)
A big change (in you baby)
I hope you've been preaching about what you know
'Cause they say you gotta reap what you sow
And you say you know that I'm for you
When you had a choice of quite a few
Well you just picked out what you wanted
And it was me you said you liked
And I must admit you've got good taste
So bring it home all right
I wanna see a change in you, baby
I wanna see a change in you today
I wanna see a change in you, baby
I wanna see a change in you today
If you don't this girl is gonna make you pay
Ooh, I wanna see a big change (in you baby)
Oooh, a big change (in you baby)
A big change (in you baby)
A big change (in you baby)
I'm looking for a love maker
Can't use no heart breakers
I wanna see a big change (in you baby)
Oooh, a big change (in you baby)
Yeah, a big change (in you baby)
Oooh, a big change (in you baby)
I wanna see a big change (in you baby)
Oooh, a big change (in you baby)
Oooh, a big change (in you baby)
