Lyrics Bobby Womack – If You Can’t Give Her Love (Give Her Up)
Text:
Haaaahhhh Hahhhhhh
Bobby laughs
You gotta learn today to look at things right on — Ooohh yeah
chorus sings
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
