| Chico DeBarge featuring Joe "Listen To Your Man" |
| (Intro - Chico & Joe) |
| Oh, no <Hey, yeah> |
| Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no <Ooh, ooh, oh> |
| Oh, no <Say what? Say what?> |
| Oh, no <Say what?> |
| Oh, no, no, no |
| <What'cha gonna do? What'cha gonna do?> |
| (Verse 1 - Chico) |
| Lately you've been on some bullshit |
| Listening to your jealous friends |
| Don't you think I would have left a long time ago? |
| It's been six months |
| I work hard to make the ends meet |
| Now it's bad, you got the nerve to disrespect me |
| Your girlfriends wish they had |
| One half of what you have |
| (Hook - Chico & Joe) |
| You don't understand |
| The make up of a man |
| If I treat you like a dog |
| Then you wanna stay |
| If I treat you like a woman |
| Then you wanna walk away |
| I don't understand, listen to your man |
| (Chorus - Chico & Joe) |
| I'm your man |
| Baby, you're my girl |
| Lady, tell me what does that mean to you |
| In a middle of a fuss |
| Tell me who you're gonna trust |
| Your cousin, baby momma best friend? |
| Listen to your man |
| (Verse 2 - Joe) |
| You say I, alone is just a loser |
| I'm gonna use you, you got your mind twisted |
| You're messed up, broke our contract |
| What's up with that? |
| Don't know what to do |
| It's unusual how they run your life |
| And behind your back they're telling lies |
| (Hook) |
| (Chorus) x 2 |
| (Bridge - Chico & Joe) |
| <Think> Think, think, think about it, baby |
| <Think> Think, think, think about it, baby |
| <Think> Think, think, think about it, baby, oh... |
| <Think> Hey, think about it |
| <Think> One more time |
| <Think> Two more times, you had enough, baby |
| <Think> Of your stuff |
| <Think> Jealousy |
| <Think> And envy |
| Will mostly bring you down |
| <Think> Jealousy |
| <Think> And envy |
| <Think> Look at your friends |
| <Think> They'll know me |
| This is your chance |
| Listen up, baby, I'm your man |
| Listen up, babe, understand, baby |
| Understand me |
| <Think> Think about it |
| <Think> I work too hard |
| <Think> I pay the bills, I work too hard |
| <Think> I pay the bills |
| <Think> Come on, baby |
| <Think> Come on, baby |
| <Think, think> |
| <Think> Think about it |
| <Think> Think about it |
| <Think> Think about it |
| <Think> Think about it, baby |
| (Chorus) x 2 |
| Listen to your man unless he wants to leave |
| 'Cause you give up nothing and that prove I don't need you |
| If you were true, I would address your reach, yeah... |
| If you can not trust in me, baby, then maybe you should leave there |
| (Chorus) x 2 |
| Listen to your man |
