Lyrics:

Baby listen, tell me what it is
Makes you want to live the life you live?
Take all what you know is mine to give
I'll be damned, you ask for more

Tell me what it is
Tell me what it is
Tell me what it is
Tell me what it is

Loan me yours and I'll give you mine
Don't you loan me no more borrowed time
You don't need to be cut short
Of what ain't yours to give

Tell me what it is
Tell me what it is
Tell me what it is
Tell me what it is

All the love I have is for my man
But he treats me like a second hand
I stand up and he says get on down
Everything is everything, no peace I find

(And my woman said)
What it takes to be my man
Is more than playing in a jive-ass band
I need security to take good care of me
And a ring on my left hand

Tell me what it is
Tell me what it is
Tell me what it is
Tell me what it is

Won't you tell me what it is
Won't you tell me what it is
Won't you tell me what it is
Won't you tell me what it is
