Earn Your Love

Baby I'm a man with some money
Paper not a problem, I could buy things
Most people cannot dream
But I don't believe in shopping for love
Purchasing you
Would only make what I believe to be true, untrue
I believe some things are beyond a price tag
And you willing to give me your body for a nice bag
Man, that make my stomach hurt (ohh-ohh)
'Specially when I'm willing to do the work (ohh)
I need a woman that knows what she really worth
Who knows what she's really worth. Yeah
Baby don't just give it
Make me earn your love
Baby make me work for it (ohh)
'Cause a real man ain't afraid to work for it
Now listen baby don't just give it
Make me earn your love
Show you that I'm worthy
Lemme prove to you I'm worthy
Listen baby don't just give it
Make me earn your love
Show you that I'm worthy
Lemme prove to you I'm worthy
Listen baby don't just give it
Make me earn your love (earn your love)
Mr. Shakur said it best when he said
"Hate to sound sleazy, but tease me
I don't want it if it's that easy"
Not necessarily talkin' about the same thing
But your selection should have nothin' to do with my chain
Or if I can buy ya damn purse
Tellin' you baby, I'm willin' to do the work
Come here baby lemme show you what you really worth
So you know what you're really worth (woah-ahh, yeah)
Baby don't just give it
Make me earn your love
Baby make me work for it (ohh)
'Cause a real man ain't afraid to work for it
Now listen baby don't just give it
Make me earn your love (ohh)
Show you that I'm worthy (show you I'm worthy babe)
Lemme prove to you I'm worthy (wooooah-ahh)
Listen baby don't just give it
Make me earn your love
Show you that I'm worthy (show you that I'm worthy, baby)
Lemme prove to you I'm worthy
Listen baby don't just give it
Make me earn your love (earn your love)
(Oooh-oh-oh-ooo)
Hate to sound sleazy, but tease me
I don't want it if it's that easy
Hate to sound sleazy, but tease me
I don't want it if it's that easy
Hate to sound sleazy, but tease me
I don't want it if it's that easy
Hate to sound sleazy, but tease me
I don't want it if it's that easy
