You Make Me Do Things (I Don't Want To Do) - Marvin Gaye

I was so proud of myself

As a lover before you came

I never begged no girl to love her

Out of the eight million people in the city

I chose you, and you’re not even pretty

I was the stronger one of any two

This time isn’t me, it’s you

You make me do things I don’t wanna do

You make me do things I don’t wanna do

Oh, baby, honey, honey

I’m trying hard to keep

The upperhand

But now I losing

My ground as a man

Today the sharpest looking girl came around

For the first time in my life, I turned one down

I love this girl and I was on to the next one

But I can’t find no one that loves, you’re the best one

You make me do things I don’t wanna do

You make me do things I don’t wanna do

Oh, wrapped around your finger, baby

That’s right darling

I fight myself

But I fight a losing battle

I try to tell my foolish self

It don’t matter

You’re number one as a lover

I’m number two

I try harder to recover

You make me do things I don’t wanna do

You make me do things I don’t wanna do

I don’t want

Do things I don’t want to do

But you make me

Yes, you do

Oh!
