Roni Lyrics by Bobby Brown

Don’t Be Cruel

1988

[Verse 1]
The truth about a roni, she's a sweet little girl
You can treat her right, feel nice and hold her tight
Only tenderonis can give a special love
A special kind of love that makes you feel good inside

[Pre-Chorus 1]
If you believe in love and all that it can do for you
Give it a chance, girl
You'll find romance
And if you find a tenderoni that is right for you
Make it official
Give her your love

[Chorus]
(My heart belongs to a roni)
She's my only love
(She's my only love)
My only heart, baby, yeah
(My heart belongs to a roni)
She's my only love
(She's my only love)

[Verse 2]
The truth about a roni, she's always on the phone
Talking to her homeboy, wishing they were home alone
She sends you lovely letters with the smell of sweet perfume
This is what a real tenderoni likes to do for you

[Pre-Chorus 1]
If you believe in love and all that it can do for you
Give it a chance, girl
You'll find romance
And if you find a tenderoni that is right for you
Make it official
Give her your love, yeah

[Chorus]
(My heart belongs to a roni)
She's my only love
(She's my only love)
My only heart
(My heart belongs to a roni)
She's my only love
(She's my only love)

[Verse 3]
The truth about roni, she's a sweet old girl
About the sweetest little girl in the whole wide world
She'd make the toughest homeboy fall deep in love
So once you've had a roni, you will never give her up
She's a special kind of girl that makes her daddy feel proud
You know, the kind of girl that stands out in crowds
Found a tenderoni and the roni is so right
I think I'm gonna love her for the rest of my life

[Pre-Chorus 2]
If you believe in love and all that it can do for you
And if you find a tenderoni that is right for you
Make it official
Give her your love, yeah

[Chorus]
(My heart belongs to a roni)
She's my only love
(She's my only love)
My only heart
(My heart belongs to a roni)
She's my only love
(She's my only love)

[Verse 4]
The truth about roni, she's a sweet old girl
About the sweetest little girl in the whole wide world
She'd make the toughest homeboy fall deep in love
So once you've had a roni, you will never give her up
She's a special kind of girl that makes her daddy feel proud
You know, the kind of girl that stands out in crowds
Found a tenderoni and the roni is so right
I think I'm gonna love her for the rest of my life

[Chorus]
(My heart belongs to a roni)
(She's my only love)
My only heart
(My heart belongs to a roni)
She's my only love
(She's my only love)

[Outro]
The truth about roni, she's a sweet old girl
About the sweetest little girl in the whole wide world
She'd make the toughest homeboy fall deep in love
So once you've had a roni, you will never give her up
She's a special kind of girl that makes her daddy feel proud
You know, the kind of girl that stands out in a crowd
Found a tenderoni and the roni is so right
I think I'm gonna love her for the rest of my life
(My heart belongs to a roni)
(She's my only love)
(My heart belongs to a roni)
