I got a sure thing

Woman in the mirror

Autor tekstu: William Bell, Booker T. Jones

A man can’t do no more
Than a woman’ll let him
She won’t make a mistake
But she knows she'll regret them
A woman will stick by you
Through thick and thin
And with a woman like this
I know I’ve got to win

I know (I know I got a sure thing)
Honey, I know (I know I got a sure thing)
I know (I know I got a sure thing)
I got a sure thing (sure thing with my baby)

Now listen to me
Me and my baby have been together
Through all kind of weather
I don’t care what happens
We’ll always be together
When I see her talking
With some fella out on the street
I know when the conversation is over
She’s coming straight home with me

I know (I know I got a sure thing)
Honey, I know (I know I got a sure thing)
I know (I know I got a sure thing)
I got a sure thing (sure thing with my baby)

Now listen to this, too
I go to work in the morning
With a satisfied mind
Don’t have to worry
About the woman I left behind
When I come home in the evening
My aching back should stop
My dinner’s on the table
My water’s in the tub

I know (I know I got a sure thing)
Honey, I know (I know I got a sure thing)
I know (I know I got a sure thing)
I got a sure thing (sure thing with my baby)
(Sure thing with my baby)
I got a sure thing (sure thing with my baby)

I know (I know I got a sure thing)
Honey, I know (I know I got a sure thing)
I know (I know I got a sure thing)
I got a sure thing (sure thing with my baby)

I know (I know I got a sure thing)
Honey, I know (I know I got a sure thing)
I know (I know I got a sure thing)
I got a sure thing (sure thing with my baby)......
