Lyrics Jody Watley – Affection

Hi, Derrick, it’s Jody
And I have, um, an idea for a song called Affection
Um, make it a little sexy, a little funky
You know, a little Sade, a little James Brown

I’m in the mood for something I’ve been missing
Ooh, would you give it to me
Sometimes it’s so easy to forget the little things
That make us all feel so special
I need hugging, my baby, kisses, baby
I got to, got to, got to, got to, got to have it

Affection
It don’t matter if you’re young or old
It don’t matter if you’re straight or gay
Everybody needs to feel loved
Oh, affection, oh…
It won’t cost you a dime
Spend a little of your time
Give it up, show me love

Do you wanna go deeper, baby
Can you touch my soul
Are you man enough to get what really comes
Can we move beyond below the waste
Understand, baby, can be, oh, so, sexy
That loving feeling, baby, is what I’ve been missing

Affection, oh…
It don’t matter if you’re young or old
It don’t matter if you’re straight or gay

It don’t matter if you’re young or old
It don’t matter if you’re straight or gay
(Ooh, baby)
Everybody needs to feel loved
It won’t cost you a dime
(Ooh, my baby)
Spend a little of your time
Give it up, show me love

Ooh-ooh-ooh…
It don’t matter if you’re young or old
It don’t matter if you’re straight or gay
Everybody needs to feel loved
My love, it’s been too long
It won’t cost you a dime
Show me
Spend a little of your time
Show me
Give it up, show me love
Do you love me

It don’t matter if you’re young or old
Hold me, kiss me, please me
It don’t matter if you’re straight or gay
(Ooh, baby)
Everybody needs to feel loved
Ooh-ooh-ooh…
It won’t cost you a dime
Spend a little of your time
My baby
Give it up, show me love

It don’t matter if you’re young or old
It don’t matter if you’re straight or gay

Anyway, something kinda like that
Now once you work from this, please erase it
Thank you, ha-ha-ha-ha!
