Mama, she always told me it would happen.
But she never said that it would happen like this.
Mama said, “Some little girl’ll catch you nappin’.
Some little girl will get to you with her kiss.”
You got to me.
You brought me to my knees.
Never thought I’d say please, girl.
You got to me,
You got to my soul;
You got to me,
You got control.
You got to me; you got to be mine.
Used to slip through every girl’s hands like water.
There never was one who could ever tie me down.
Straight ahead and steady as Gibraltar,
till you brought me tumblin’ to the ground.
You got to me.
You brought me to my knees.
Never thought I’d say please, girl.
You got to me,
You got to my soul;
You got to me,
You got control.
You got to me; you got to be mine.
Down on your knees; baby, say please.
Down on your knees; baby, say please.
You got to me.
You brought me to my knees.
Never thought I’d say please, girl.
You got to me,
You got to my soul;
You got to me,
You got control.
You got to me; you got to be mine.
You got to me, girl; all right, come on.
You got to me, girl; all right, come on.
