[00:08.23]Now, now, now, honey
[00:09.49]You better sit down and look around
[00:12.57]‘Cause you must've bumped yo’ head
[00:14.81]And I love you enough to talk some sense back into you, baby
[00:17.55]I’d hate to see you come home—me, the kids, and the dog is gone
[00:21.83]Check my credentials
[00:23.72]I give you everything you want, everything you need
[00:26.52]Even your friends say I’m a good woman
[00:28.70]All I need to know is why...
[00:30.82]Why don’t you love me?
[00:32.87]Tell me baby, why don’t you love me?
[00:35.89]When I make me so damn easy to love?
[00:45.08]And why don’t you need me?
[00:46.59]Tell me, baby, why don’t you need me?
[00:49.94]When I make me so damn easy to need
[00:57.43]I got beauty, I got class
[01:00.45]I got style and I got ass
[01:03.94]And you don’t even care to care
[01:08.90]I even put money in the bank account
[01:14.26]Don’t have to ask no one to help me out
[01:17.99]You don’t even notice that
[01:26.98]Why don’t you love me?
[01:28.93]Tell me, baby , why don’t you love me?
[01:31.88]When I make me so damn easy to love
[01:41.24]And why don’t you need me?
[01:42.98]Tell me, baby, why don’t you need me?
[01:46.19]When I make me so damn easy to need
[01:53.32]I got beauty, I got heart
[01:56.72]Keep my head in them books, I’m sharp
[01:59.94]But you don’t care to know I’m smart
[02:07.45]I got moves in your bedroom
[02:10.49]Keep you happy with the nasty things I do
[02:13.97]But you don’t seem to be in tune
[02:23.11]Why don’t you love me?
[02:24.73]Tell me baby, why don’t you love me?
[02:28.12]When I make me so damn easy to love
[02:37.15]And why don’t you need me?
[02:38.99]Tell me, baby, why don’t you need me?
[02:42.25]When I make me so damn easy to need
[02:49.29]There’s nothing not to love about me
[02:50.83]No, no, there’s nothing to need about me...
[02:55.26]No, no, there’s nothing to need about me...
[03:03.25]No, no, there’s nothing to need about me...
[03:11.54]Maybe you’re just not the one
[03:14.56]Or maybe you’re just plain dumb
[03:37.75]
