Do You Know What It Takes

(Always be around)
(Do ya? Do ya? Do ya?)

Don't you know? I can see what you're doing
Runnin' around with your cheap-talk, cheap-talk, yeah
What I need is a man who can do me right
Do me right

If you got what I need, I can guarantee
To return all the love that you're givin' to me
But I got to be sure that you will always be around (always be around)
Ah, yeah

Do you know what it takes to love me (do you know)?
Do you know what it takes to do me right?
Do you know what it takes to love me, baby? Baby
(Ooh, ooh, yeah, yeah)

Heaven knows, in my time, I've been lonely
Feelin' my love echo in my mind, in my mind, yeah
A never-satisfied girl is what they call me
But I just can't keep going on living like that

Guarantee, unto me
You won't let me down
There's so much I can give
But it's buried so deep
I've just got to be sure
That you will always be around

(Always be around) ah, yeah
Do you know what it takes to love me (do you know it)?
Do you know what it takes to do me right?
Do you know what it takes to love me, baby? Baby

Do you know what it takes (do you know it)?
Do you know what it takes?

(Don't waste my time with your lies)
Yeah, baby, I gotta know
(You've got to prove that you will–)
(Always be around) oh, yeah, yeah
I'll give you everything
Boy, will you do the same for me?
Will you do anything?
I gotta know the way it be

Do you know what it takes to love me (do you know)?
Do you know what it takes to do me right?
Do you know? Do you know?
Do you know what it takes?

Do you know what it takes (to love me, baby, yeah)?
Do you know what it takes to do me right?

Don't waste my time, baby
