Lyrics The Jones - 12" Surgery Mix - The Temptations

Hit me, come on
Hit me

Hit me, come on
I′m gonna do it
I'm gonna do it
Watch me now

Who wants to be like, who wants to be like the Jones′?
Who wants to be like, who wants to be like the Jones'?

One lonely night, I decided to go out with some friends of mine
I was fresh, I must confess, I was dressed to impress
Paid 20 dollars at the door
When I walked in, I got more than I bargained for
If by chance, she'd happen to dance my way
These are the words I would have said

Who wants to be like, who wants to be like the Jones′?
Who wants to be like, who wants to be like the Jones′?

When the music started to play, took me away
Somewhere I've never been before
I met this girl, she′s someone
A really cutie pie, she really turned me on

She happened to ask me for a dance
I didn't want to blow my one and only chance
When the jam began to play
These are the only words that I can think of to say

I expected to go out, have a good time with my friends
And find myself some peace of mind
How was I to know that I would meet someone
A gorgeous girl that′d turn out to be a waste of my time

She told me her last name was Jones, women go on lots of phones
She said that she would give me the world if I let her be my girl
She said if she became my wife, a family would choose my life
I shook my head and these are the very words I said

Who wants to be like, who wants to be like the Jones'? (don′t want to be, don't want to be like the Jones')
Who wants to be like, who wants to be like the Jones′? (I don′t want to be like the Jones')
Who wants to be like, who wants to be like the Jones′? (don't want to be, don′t want to be like the Jones')
Who wants to be like, who wants to be like the Jones′? (I don't want to be like the Jones')

Who wants to be like, who wants to be like the Jones′?
Who wants to be like, who wants to be like the Jones′?
Who wants to be like, who wants to be like the Jones'?
Who wants to be like, who wants to be like the Jones′?
