Oooh...ooh...ooh...ooh... (Yeah)
If they gleam in the sun
while they spin and they fit on my truck then {I could remember}
And if it came in the sack
No stems no seeds in the bag then {I could remember}
And if they drip from my wrist and they look like they shine like new then {I
could remember}
But Ohhh girl
I forgot to be your lover
If it wasn't for the 9 to 5
Double-up overtime then { I could remember}
If it wasn't for the Sunday all star
weekend games girl {I could remember}
And if it wasn't for the dough
Gettin fifty g's a show girl ya know that {I could remember}
But silly me, silly me
Ohhh
Tell me how could I ever forget to be your lover
Now I realize that you need love too (Oh, yeah)
Spend my life makin' up to you
Oh, girl
Oh, I forgot to be your lover
When she starts bringin’ up old dirt
And the fights keep getting worse (Oh, brother)
Findin’ numbers in her purse
Better put that woman first (Yeah)
And you notice she ain’t wearin’ her ring (Oh, no)
When she starts playin’ little games
Comin’ in late from work
You better put that woman first
If it wasn't for the make up on my shirt
Still out there chasin' skirts then {I could remember}
And if it wasn't for that fight last night
You smashin out my headlights then { I could remember}
If it wasn't for parole
Steady duckin' my P O girl you know { I could remember}
But silly me, silly me, babe
Tell me how could I ever forget to be your lover
Now I realize that you need love too
Spend my life makin' up to you
Oh, girl
Oh, I forgot to be your lover
When she starts bringin’ up old dirt (Bringin’ up old
shhhh)
And the fights keep getting worse
(Oh...oh...oh...oh...)
Findin’ numbers in her purse (I’m tellin’ you,
brother)
Better put that woman first (You better put your woman
first
And you notice she ain’t wearin’ her ring (Oh, yeah)
When she starts playin’ little games (I’m-I’m-I’m-I’m
tellin’ you, brother)
Comin’ in late from work
You better put that woman first (Put that woman first)
{So many times} Actin like it wasn't really nothin'
{So many ways} Kept to myself, always runnin’
{So many games} All that I sin
{So many words} I need you to stay
{Always came first} Even though sometimes fallin’
second
{Came down to love} You know I had to win the last race
{Spend some time} Put in some work
{And for better or worse} Always put that woman first
When she starts bringin’ up old dirt
And the fights keep getting worse (Gettin’ worse)
Findin’ numbers in her purse (In her purse)
Better put that woman first (Put that woman first)
And you notice she ain’t wearin’ her ring (Ooh, yeah)
When she starts playin’ little games (Her little
games)
Comin’ in late from work (I’mma say it again)
You better put that woman first (Put that woman, put that woman first)
When she starts bringin’ up old dirt
And the fights keep getting worse (She’s gonna leave
you)
Findin’ numbers in her purse
Better put that woman first (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
And you notice she ain’t wearin’ her ring (Yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah)
When she starts playin’ little games (Yeah, yeah)
Comin’ in late from work
You better put that woman first

good remake | Reviewer: marissa | 5/12/2006
This is actually a remake of the original 1969 "To Be A Lover" written by William Bell and Booker T. Jones. There's a version of this song on an older reggae CD by Lee "Scratch" Perry, performed by George Faith. This particular album is called Reggae Greats and it was released in 1984. Just an historical note - I am only 32, so it's not like I was around, but I think credit should be given where credit is due, and young people seem ignorant to how much of the quality work that was laid out before some new person takes it and uses it, as is the case here. But, modernizing old songs is a credit to the original artist and goes to show the longevity of some older works. I wonder if someone will be using Jaheim's version in 22 years...
this song is MEAN i mean dat in a awsome way so yeh.
this song is so tru and Jaheim rips it up in tha vocals....
by tha way any1 know tha PIANO SCORE? i luv singin da song and tha piano is 2 hard too learn mannualy mayb coz its synthesised in2 tha piece. but yeh its tha bomb
