I don't know what love is,
but I think I must have it bad
Yeah, you I don't know what love is,
people, whoah, but I think I must have it bad
Yeah, you know some people say love is just a gamble,
but whatever it is, it's enough to drive old me mad

They say love is just a proposition,
people. it's strictly a game of give and take
Yeah, they tell me love, love, love is a proposition,
people, they say it's strictly a game of give and take
Whoah, but my woman took all I gave her
and I'm here to tell to you that love proposition stuff 's a fake

Oh, I don't claim to be no gambler people,
oh, I don't know much about the dice
Yes, I don't claim to be no gambler people,
I tell you I don't know much about the dice
Oh, but I wait and my baby knows, she knows
I'm not the kind who's gonna crap out twice

Yes, she left me early this mornin',
I don't know the reason why
She just got up early this mornin',
didn't even say good-bye
But I love you, I love you,
you know I love you baby,
although you made me cry
Yes, there are a lot of women who love me,
oh, but how you satisfy
