The Temptations – Earned It lyrics
[Verse 1]
You make it look like it's magic (Oh yeah)
'Cause I see nobody, nobody but you, you, you
I'm never confused
Hey, hey, I’m so used to bein' used

[Pre-Chorus]
So I love when you call unexpected (oh oh oh)
'Cause I hate when the moment's expected
So I'ma care for you, you, you
I'ma care for you, you, you, you, yeah you

[Chorus]
'Cause girl, you're perfect (Girl, you’re perfect)
You're always worth it (You’re always worth it)
And you deserve it (And you deserve it)
The way you work it (The way you work it)
‘Girl, you’ve ea-ea-earned it, yeah
Girl, you’ve ea-ea-earned it, yeah

[Verse 2]
You know our love would be tragic (Oh yeah)
So you don't pay it, don't pay it no mind (No mind)
We live with no lies
He-e-ey, you're my favorite kind of night

[Pre-Chorus]
So I love when you call unexpected (Unexpected)
'Cause I hate when the moment's expected
So I'ma care for you (You, you, you, you)
I'ma care for you, you, you, you, yeah

[Chorus]
'Cause girl, you're perfect (Girl, you’re perfect)
You're always worth it (You’re always worth it)
And you deserve it (And you deserve it)
The way you work it (The way you work it)
‘Girl, you’ve ea-ea-earned it (ah ah ah)
Girl, you’ve ea-ea-earned it (ah ah ah) yeah

[Verse 3]
On that lonely night
(We said it wouldn't be love)
But we felt the rush (It made us believe)
There was only us
Convinced we were broken insi-i-i-ide
Yeah insi-i-i-ide

[Chorus]
'Cause girl, you're perfect (Girl, you're perfect)
You're always worth it (You’re always worth it)
And you deserve it (And you deserve it)
The way you work it (The way you work it)
'Cause girl, you’ve ea-ea-earned it, yeah (Earned it)
Girl, you’ve ea-ea-earned it, yes you did
‘Cause still you’re perfect
And you deserve it
Girl, you’ve earned it
Girl you’ve ea-ea-earned it

[Chorus]
Still you’re perfect (Girl, you’re perfect)
Always worth it (You’re always worth it)
And you deserve it (And you deserve it)
The way you work it (The way you work it)
Girl, you’ve earned it (Ah ah ah ah)
Girl, you’ve earned it (Ah ah ah ah)

[Outro]
You make it look like it's magic (Oh yeah)
