Lyrics All I Want Is a Fighting Chance - Millie Jackson



Wait a minute
Ain't that Mrs. Jodie over there?
Mrs. Jodie! (Yes?)
You know, I'm like an old relative of yours
I know you don't know me but
Since I been going with your husband for the last past year and a half
(What with my husband?)
That would sorta, like, make us wives in-law
You know what I mean?
(Make us wives in-laws?)
(Are you crazy? What's wrong with you?)
(What the hell are you talking about?!)
All I want is a fighting chance
The rules of the game: To be fair
Since all is fair in love and war
It's war I do declare
Call out your army, alert your navy
Bring out your reserves and marines
'Cause I've alerted your man
He's well-informed
He's been attacked by my love machine
'Cause all I want is a fighting chance
A fight it is going to be
Give me an inch, I'll take a mile
'Cause you're dealing with TNT
Get some TNT, I'm a bomb
Your man has set off my time
I'm gonna blow up his mind
And burst all his heart
And fill it with this love of mine
'Cause all I want is a fighting chance
The war is already won
All I need is a fighting chance
'Cause I'm the daughter of a son-of-a-gun
All I want is a fighting chance
A fight it is going to be
Come on here, turn him over to me
Give that man to me, yeah, yeah
Give him over to me (Wow!)
