Ah, ah, ah
Things just ain`t the way that they used to be
Back in the day when a man meant security
He`d be working hard all week
Baby kick back and throw up your feet
Let me fix you a treat
So it might be love and sweet
But he`s worth it
He deserves it
May not be perfect
But he`s all the man I need
He`s ready and willing
Gives me the feeling, ah
And whenever we`re together
I know where I belong
[chorus:]
It`s just the way he looks into your eyes
Love that man
It`s the love he gives that makes you fantasize
Love that man
It`s the time he takes to show you that he cares
And he`s always there (He`s always always there)
Don`t you love that man (I know)
Things they ain`t the way they used to be
When a woman and a man work hard to be
Happy in love and stand together ooh
(Let`s stay that way forever)
Never give in to a fight
Just trying work it out
Never give up on him
That`s not what love`s about
Stay true to your feelings
And remember
All the things he`s done for you
[Repeat Chorus]
You`d better know I`m talking about that old-school love
That everlasting feeling can never be too much
Somebody loves you heart and soul
Hold on, don`t stop
And never let him go
[Repeat Chorus]
