Gerald Levert - You're A Keeper lyrics

Backbone

The G Spot CD

Gerald Levert

Uhh oh yea

well well well well well well well

uhh oh baby

listen to me

oh huh

Just got laid off from work today

I can't go home

What am I gonna say

Guess I'll go to the local bar toss up a few

Tell the bartender what I'm going thru

He said if you got a good woman

She gon catch you when you fall

So instead of giving me an earful

here's a quarter you need to call her

So here I am baby

If tonight I cry (oh baby)

I need you to be strong

Will you be my shoulder (oh baby)

Girl you are my backbone (my backbone)

And I'm falling apart

My little boy birthday is coming (yeah)

And he want that playstation too (yes he do)

What am I gonna tell him

Gotta save cause the rent is due the rent is due

You say you'll get another job (yes you do girl)

But I won't put you thru that

Just hold me close tonight

Say everything will be alright

I just need to know I need to know you got my back

So If tonight I cry (oh I cry)

I need you to be strong

Will you be my shoulder (my shoulder)

Girl you are my backbone my backbone

And I'm falling apart

Girl I know it's really messed up

I think the Lord is trying to test us (yes he is)

Better half never meant so much to me

Like any real man

I want my family to have everything and anything

But I'm struggling to get on my feet

If tonight I cry oh baby

I need you to be strong baby

Girl you're my shoulder

Baby you're my backbone my backbone

And this man is falling apart (ooh)

I don't wanna cry (ooh) so I need you to be strong

For the kids and the family

Can't let'em see us down

Cause you know they gon kick ya

when ya down and out (backbone backbone)

See nobody wants you nobody even cares

(If tonight I cry)

If tonight If tonight If tonight If tonight I cry

Baby wont you be strong ooh ooh

Cause you are, will you be, you need to be, you gotta be my shoulde
