[Verse 1]
What kind of man
Would leave you standin' in the cold?
It must've been a silly one
To sacrifice a pot of gold
You're the kind of woman
That needs a man that's always there
It's not that you require a lot
Just need some tender love and care, care
[Chorus]
I give good love
I'll buy your clothes
I'll cook your dinner, too, ooh baby
Soon as I get home from work
I'll pay your rent
Be your faithful lover
Soon as I get home, soon as I get home from work
Girl, I'll treat you right and I'll never lie
For all that it's worth
I give good love
(Good love, good love, good love, good love)
Good love, oh
[Verse 2]
It doesn't make sense
That you should have a broken heart
If I were the only one
I'd never let you fall apart
You're the kind of woman
Who needs a man with lots of cash
With a stack of major credit cards
And with me you don't have to ask, ask
[Chorus]
I give good love
I'll buy your clothes
I'll cook your dinner, too, ooh baby
Soon as I get home from work
I'll pay your rent
Your faithful lover
(I'll be your faithful lover)
Soon as I get home, soon as I get home from work
(Wait 'til I get home from work)
Girl, I'll treat you right and I'll never lie or flirt
(Gonna always treat you right, girl)
Soon as I get home, soon as I get home from work
(Yeah, I can't wait 'til I get home)
Girl, I'll be around, never let you down
(I'm gonna always be around)
For all that it's worth
(For all that it's worth, I give good love)
Good love, good love, good love, good love
(Yeah, I give good love, I give good love)
Good love, good love, good love, good love
(Oh, I wonder, can you take this love? Hoo)
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
(I give good love)
I give good love
I'll buy your clothes
(I'll buy your clothes)
I'll cook your dinner, too
(I'll cook your dinner)
Soon as I get home from work
(Soon as I get home)
I'll pay your rent
(I'll pay your rent)
Your faithful lover
(Gonna be, gonna be your faithful lover)
Soon as I get home, soon as I get home from work
(Soon as I get home, comin' straight home to you, baby)
Girl, I'll treat you right and I never lie or flirt
(I'm gonna always treat you right, and I'll never, never flirt)
Soon as I get home, soon as I get home from work
(Never mess around, I'll always be around)
Girl, I'll be around, never let you down
(Girl, I'll be around)
For all that it's worth
(I give good love)
Good love, good love, good love, good love
(Yes, I give good love)
Good love, good love, good love, good love
(I give good love; can you take this good love? Hoo)
Good love, good love, good love, good love
My love, good love, I give good love
