Karen Young – Baby, You Ain't Nothing Without Me lyrics

My friends say I'm crazy to love only you
That's never stopped me before and you know it
Just 'cause they see you playing all over town
Make some think I'll never get to show it
But I can build you up, break you down
Knock you ten feet under the ground
Make you good, make you bad
Turn you wild and drive you mad, 'cause

Chorus:
Baby, you ain't nothing without me
That it's just the way it's got to be
You will never be nothing without me
And you know it
Take your love away and you will see

You will see

Days have gone by and the phone never rings
Just what do you think I'm doing with my loving
I know you call me 'cause your time's almost up
Just think about what will do ones of my loving
I'm gonna knock you out three times and then
You'll scream and holler to do it again
Show you just what love's about
I won't quit till you pass out

Repeat Chorus

You will see

Take your love away and you will see
You will see

(Long instrumental break)

Baby, you ain't nothing without me
Baby, you ain't nothing without me

Days have gone by and the phone never rings
Just what do you think I'm doing with my loving
I know you call me 'cause your time's almost up
Just think about what will do ones of my loving
I'm gonna knock you out three times and then
You'll scream and holler to do it again
Show you just what love's about
I won't quit till you pass out

Repeat Chorus

You ain't nothing (4x)

Hey, baby, I said, baby, you know you're nothing

You ain't nothing (4x)

Baby, you ain't nothing without me
That it's just the way it's got to be
Baby, you ain't nothing without me
And you know it
Take away your love and you will see
Baby, you ain't nothing without me
