Let me be your lovemaker Let me be your soul shaker Let me be your lovemaker Let me be your soul shaker
Around this time last summer When you and I first met I thought I was cool Living by the rules Trying to play hard to get
So you found some good-time chick To give you the love you needed I didn’t know a thing About the thrills love could bring I was young, selfish, and conceited
I know you don’t think I’m ready But open your eyes and see As sure as my name is Betty I can love away all your misery
Let me be your lovemaker Let me be your soul shaker Why don’t ya, Let me be your lovemaker Let me be your soul shaker
About this time last year I was blind to all the good things you said The sweet words you spoke I took them for a joke Though they were strong enough raise the dead
So you thought you wasted Both your time and mine But now I’m ready to do What you want me to ‘Cause I’m your woman And I ain’t lyin’
I know you don’t think I’m ready But open your eyes and see As sure as my name is Betty I can love away all your misery, hee
So, let me (umh) be your lovemaker (I need to be) Let me be your soul shaker (umh) Why don’t ya, let me be your lovemaker Let me be your soul shaker
Why don’t let me be it baby Why don’t ya let me be… I wanna be, I got ta got ta be
Won’t it be nice baby If ya let me be your love maker Let me be good to ya
