"Somebody Wants What I Got" lyrics

"Somebody Wants What I Got"

You know I must be the envy
Of every little girl in town
Cos I've got that kind of man
They told me that just couldn't be found

I'm gonna tell you, ready or not
I know that somebody somebody
Wants what I got

He knows all the right things to do
Exactly what to say
You don't know how glad he makes me
That this man came my way

He loves me when I want it
(My man)
He loves me when I need it
(My man)
I oughta tell you how he does it
(My man)
But if I did, you wouldn't believe it

Somebody somebody somebody
(Somebody wants what I've got)
I tell you a good man is so hard to find

Yeah
Somebody somebody
Somebody somebody
(Somebody wants what I've got)
But girls I ain't giving up mine
No no

I want you to listen to me one more time

The man loves me when I want it
(My man)
He loves me when I need it
(My man)
I oughta tell you how he does it
(My man)
But if I did, you wouldn't believe it

Somebody somebody
Somebody somebody
(Somebody wants what I've got)
I'll tell you right now
A good man is so hard to find

Yeah

Somebody somebody somebody
(Somebody wants what I've got)
Girls I sure ain't giving up mine, no no
(Somebody wants what I've got)
I tell you I'm not giving up mine
(Somebody wants what I've got)
This man loves me when I want it
(Somebody wants what I've got)
I tell you he loves me when I need it
(Somebody wants what I've got)
I sure ain't giving up mine, no no
(Somebody wants what I've got)
Somebody's try to steal my good stuff
Yes they are
But I sure ain't giving up mine, no no
