Please, don't cry, my baby
Can't nobody
Ever come between us
No, we've got something
Something special, yeah
Neighbors on our street are talking about our thing
Messing, messing with our business
Pay no attention, baby
Hold your little head up high, now
People are going to talk
People are going to hate us
People are going to talk, ooh
People will be people and I'll tell you people
They've just got to talk
Ooh, don't worry, baby, it's going to be all right
Can't nobody
Ever bring us down, now
We got it baby
We've got the real "real thing"
The way you walk, I'll tell you, it sure is nice
It makes them nervous just to watch you walk, baby
Keep on strutting, honey
Hold your little head up high, now
People are going to talk
People are going to hate us
People are going to talk, ooh
People will be people and I'll tell you people
They've just got to talk
Don't you let them get you down, now
Don't you worry about a dog-gone thing
People are just naturally going to talk about a girl who's got it
Got everything and baby, baby
Baby, you've got it, huh
People gonna talk
People gonna frown
People gonna talk and ooh put us down
People gonna be people and I tell you people
They just gotta talk
So let 'em talk, huh!
People just naturally gonna talk
But we got to keep on tryin'
But we got to keep on tryin'
But we got to keep on tryin', yeah
It's so hard to live in this dog-gone city, huh
It's a city without pity
But we got to keep on tryin'
We got to keep on tryin'
Oh let 'em talk
Talking about a girl, ooh
Talking about a girl who's got it
Talking about a girl who's got it
Talking about a girl who's got it
Talking about a girl who's got it
