Giving You The Benefit

Lately I´ve been trying to figure out your mind

And why condition me poor little me

And why you have a change of heart turn it all around and then

Try to put it on me poor little me

Don´t ya know I can make ya trip I can make things hard

But baby I believe that you´ve still got a heart that´s why

I try to stop myself before I start ´cause I can make it tough

I can make it rough but won´t

CHORUS:

And I´ll be giving you the benefit of the doubt

Giving you a minute to try to work it all out

And I´ll be giving you the benefit of the doubt

And I´ll be giving you a minute to try to work it all out

Baby work it all work it all out

(work, work, work)

Baby work it all work it all out

(work, work, work) oooohh

Baby how could you be hangin´ out on a diamond queen

Ain´t you missin´ me poor little me

When you knew all the time that you could have been

With your home girl lovin´ and a

Kissin´ on sweet little me

Don´t you know if you wanna be a man you

gotta work real hard

If you wanna make me feel like I´m your number one then

Nothin´ in the world should make us part

´Cause we can make it work if you

take it with the hurt from the heart

REPEAT CHORUS

Baby work it all work it all out

(work, work, work)

Work it baby (work, work, work)

Keep tryin´ to work it all out

I can make you trip but I choose not to

Inside of you I think there´s still good in you boy

Don´t gimmie no reason not to trust you

Just take the benefit don´t gimme no lip and I´ll be sweet to you

(1-2-3-4) Try to understand you right boy So you need some time (time) to

work it out work it work it There´s really no need to fuss and fight no

All I want is for you to try and work it out (1-2-3-4) REPEAT CHORUS

Giving you the benefit

(I´ll be giving I wanna give it giving you the benefit
