Oh, no no, baby
Girl, I want to provide for you
You complain and criticize
I'm ready to give, as well as take
Oh, oh no, don't bring me down
Sacrifices, I will make
Don't bring me down
It makes me feel like giving up
Oh, oh no, don't bring me down
Oh, baby, baby, baby don't hurt me
And do all the things that you want me to, but
I'm beggin' you darlin'
So please don't bring me down
Oh, oh no, don't bring me down
Oh, oh no, don't bring me down
Please, oh no, no don't bring me down
It makes me feel like giving up
I'm beggin', oh no, don't bring me down
One thing I can't take is your neglect
Because my best just ain't good enough
Oh, oh no, don't bring me down
I feel I'm nothing in your eyes
I need your tender lovin'
Do all the things that you want me to, but
More than anything, I need your love
Because my best just ain't good enough
One thing I need is your respect
Then troubles are easy to rise above
Girl, I want to provide for you
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh, no, no, no, no, no
