Somebody told me
"Boy, everything she wants
is everything she sees"
I guess I must
have loved you
Because I said you were
the perfect girl for me
Ah, ha, ha
Oh-oh, yeah
Somebody told me
"Boy, everything she wants
is everything she sees"
I guess I must
have loved you
Because I said you were
the perfect girl for me
Baby,
and now we're six months older
And everything you want,
and everything you see
Is out of reach,
not good enough
I don't know what the hell
you want from me, oh
--------------------------
Somebody tell me, oh
Why I work so hard for you
--------------------------
Some people work
for a living
Some people work for fun
Girl, I just work for you
They told me marriage
was a give-and-take
Well, you've shown me
you can take,
you've got some giving to do
And now you tell me
that you're having my baby
I'll tell you that I'm happy
if you want me to
But one step further
and my back will break
If my best isn't good enough,
then how can it be good
enough for two?

Somebody tell me, oh
Why I work so hard for you
