Mama, been workin', so hard;
keep on workin', mama, but you don't get far.
But baby I know, baby you're blind;
and I'll keep risin', mama, baby just to show you're mine.

I keep workin', I keep workin' on you.
I keep workin', I keep workin' on you.

Well I been watchin' you grow,
and baby, you got what it takes to let me know.
Sure as the devil, rise in the blind,
it's gonna be nasty, and it's gonna be mine.

I been workin', I been workin' on you.
Lord, I been workin', I been workin' on you.

Keep on movin', pretty baby, I feel you in my heart.
Gentle on me movin', honey, honey,
but you can't be far, you can't be far.
Baby but you keep on with me, true to form;
I can't ask for more now, baby, but your soul star is born.

Oh, I been watchin' you grow,
and baby, you got what it takes to let me know.
Sure as the devil, rise in the blind,
it's gonna be nasty, baby you're gonna be mine.

I been workin', I been workin' on you, yes I have.
Mama, I been workin', I been workin' on you, oh no.

Babe, I been workin', I been workin' on you.
I been workin', I been workin' on you.

Repeat and fade
