Baby (Soul Sessions)

Mmm, don't be actin' like all that 'cause you done made it
'Cause you ain't all that now
The same people you see goin' up, you see 'em comin' down
Mmm, they can do what they do

Before you got your ends and your brand new Benz
And your exclusive friends, baby
I was your ride or die, your short one supply
Everything you needed
There was never room for either to assume
You would be leavin'
But now that you're brand new and gettin' on through
Somethin' to take with you

I was your baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
When you needed lovin'
I was your baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
When you needed huggin'
I was your baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
When you needed strokin'
I was your baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
When you needed chokin'

Now that you're flyin' high, head up in the sky
Got everyone believin' (I was your baby)
You made it by yourself with nobody's help
Ooh, you deceivin'
You already know you reapin' what you sow
Better take it slow
Boy, let me warn you while you're makin' your move
Somethin' to take with you

I was your baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
When you needed lovin'
I was your baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
When you needed huggin'
I was your baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
When you needed strokin'
I was your baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
When you needed chokin'

Slow, I want you
You wanted me, mmm-mmm-mmm, I want you
Slow, ooh, I want you
You wanted me, mmm-mmm-mmm, I want you

Before you lose your mind, you better press rewind
Get some understandin' (I was your baby)
'Cause life is much too short
See, I works for mine, life is too demandin'
Breakin' every rule, thinkin' that it's cool
Baby, don't you be no fool
Boy, let me warn you while you're makin' your move
Somethin' to take with you

I was your baby, baby, baby, baby, baby (I was your baby, yeah)
When you needed lovin'
I was your baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
When you needed huggin'
I was your baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
When you needed strokin'
I was your baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
When you needed chokin'

Slow, I want you
You wanted me, mmm-mmm-mmm, I want you
Slow, oh, I want you
You wanted me, mmm-mmm-mmm, I want you
Slow, I want you
You wanted me, mmm-mmm-mmm, I want you
Slow, I want you
You wanted me, mmm-mmm-mmm, I want you

You used to love me, kiss me and hug me
You used to love me, kiss me and hug me
You used to love me, kiss me and hug me
You used to love me, you used to love me
You used to love me, kiss me and hug me
You used to love me, you used to love me
You used to love me, kiss me and hug me
You used to love me, you used to love me
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Gave you everything that I ever needed, baby

Kiss me and hug me

You used to love me, kiss me and hug me
You used to love me, you used to love me
Kiss me and hug me, you used to love me
You used to love me, kiss me and hug me
You used to love me, yeah
