The Commodores - Why You Wanna Try Me

Why you wanna try me, baby
Why you wanna do me this way, oh, oh
Why you wanna try me, baby
Why you wanna do me this way, whoa

So many nights, so many days, baby
I've been hurt by your love
I don't know why I still
Love you like I do, baby
But you're a star in my world

Oh, how you get me down and lonely
Ooh, yeah, my heart is in your hands
I don't see why you won't let me
When you know I'll be
Your number one man, yeah

Why you wanna try me, baby
Why you wanna do me this way
Why you wanna try me, baby
Why you wanna do me this way, ooh

Tell me, yeah, oh, yeah
Whoa, whoa, whoa

Oh, I wanna know
Just how you feel about me
I can't pretend anymore

My love for you
Just keeps on getting strong
Don't make me walk out the door

This can't go on forever
We've played this love game too long
I've tried my best to understand you
Please love me, girl, and don't do me wrong

Why you wanna try me, baby
Why you wanna do me this way
Why you wanna try me, baby
I'm the one you want
Just tell me where I am

Ooh, whoa, whoa, whoa
Tell me, tell me
Please don't go

Stop right there, hold on
Why you wanna try me, oh, yeah
Stop right there, hold on
Why you wanna try me
Ooh, yeah, yeah

Stop right there, hold on
Why you wanna try me
Stop right there, hold on
Why you wanna try me

Oh, stop right there, hold on
Why you wanna try me
Stop right there, hold on
Why you wanna try me...
