Lyrics:

Mercedes
Ain't no way for me to love you
If you won't let me
No, it ain't no way for me to give you all you need
If you won't let me give all of me
I know that a woman's duty
Is to help and love a man
And that's the way it was planned

Oh, but how can I, how can I, how can I
Give you all of the things I can
If you're tyin' both of my hands?

Oh, it ain't no way (Ain't no way)
It ain't no way (Ain't no way)
It just ain't no way, baby (Ain't no way)
Ain't no way, baby (Ain't no way)
It ain't no way for you me to love you (Oooh)
If you won't let me

Stop tryin' to be someone you're not
Hard, cold, and cruel is a man
Who paid too much for what he got
And if you need me to love you
Say, say you do
Oh then, baby, baby, baby
Don't you know that I need you?

Oh, ain't no way (Ain't no way)
I tell you that it ain't no way, it ain't no way, it ain't no way, baby (Ain't no way)
No, it just ain't no way (Ain't no way)
It sho' ain't no way (Ain't no way)
It ain't no way for me to love you (Oooh)
If you won't let me
