Chaka Khan - I Was Made To Love Him lyrics

I was born in Little Rock

I had a childhood sweetheart

We were always hand in hand

He wore high top shoes and shirt tails

Chaka wore her pigtails

I knew I loved him even then

Well you know my papa disapproved

My mama boo hoo hooed

But I told 'em time and time again

Don't you know

I was made to love him

Build my world all around him

Yeah, yeah, yeah

He's been my inspiration

And shows appreciation

For the love I gave him through the years

Like a sweet magnolia tree

My love blossoms tenderly

My life grew sweeter through the years

I know that

My baby loves me

My baby needs me

That's why we've made it through the years

I was made to love him

Build my world all around him

Yeah, yeah, yeah

All through thick and thin

My love just won't end

'Cause my I love my baby, love my baby, oh

My baby loves me

My baby needs me

That's why we've made it through the years

When I was knee-high to a chicken

The love bug bit me

And I'm still, still in love

If the distant mountain crumble

Love won't tumble

I'll still be standin' there

Can't go nowhere, I'm on fire...
