Got to have you baby,
don't you say that you don't care.
Got to have you baby,
don't you say that you don't care.
Any way you want it baby,
I'll settle for a back door love affair.
I call you on the telephone,
the party says that you ain't there.
I call you on the telephone,
the party says that you ain't there.
When a man asked who's callin',
I said, just tell 'em it's a back door love affair.
