Lyrics

I Wanna Be Your Lover

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 ain't got no money

I ain't like those other guys you hang around

And it's kinda funny

But they always seem to let you down

And I get discouraged

'cause I never see you anymore

And I need your love, babe yeah

That's all I'm living for, yeah

I didn't wanna pressure you, baby

But all I ever wanted to do

I wanna be your lover

I wanna be the only one that makes you come running

I wanna be your lover

I wanna turn you on, turn you out, all night long, make youshout

Oh, lover! Yeah

I wanna be the only one you come for

I wanna be your brother

I wanna be your mother and your sister, too

There ain't no other

That can do the things that I'll do to you

And I get discouraged

'cause you treat me just like a child

And they say I'm so shy, yeah

But with you I just go wild!

I didn't wanna pressure you, baby. No!

But all I ever wanted to do

I wanna be your lover

I wanna be the only one that makes you come running

I wanna be your lover

I wanna turn you on, turn you out, all night long make youshout

Oh, lover! Yeah

I wanna be the only one you come for, yeah
