Do Your Duty by Candi Staton Lyrics by Candi Staton

0

You got the love that every girl needs
You got the kind of love I want
I don’t want you to set me free
Ooh no, baby don’t
I gotta have your looks
To get up in the morning time
Sun is about to shine above and yonder
Come on and give me what’s mine
Come on and do (do)
Do your duty (do your duty)
Come on and do (do)
Do your duty (do your duty)
Waa do (do)
What you’re supposed to do (do your duty)
Do what you’re supposed to do
Do what you know you got to do
Do your duty
[sax solo]
You can’t deny it, baby don’t try it
Come on and give it on up
I gotta have it, can’t do without it
Ooh eeh, shown off
Your love is all I need
And I can’t help myself
You baby only you
I don’t want nobody else
Come on and do (do)
Do your duty (do your duty)
Come on and do (do)
Do your duty (do your duty)
Do (do)
What you’re supposed to do (do your duty)
Do what you’re supposed to do
Do what you know you got to do
Do your duty
Do your duty
Come on and do (do your duty)
Do your duty (do what you got to do)
You better do (do your duty)
Do your duty (do what you got to do)
If you don’t do it (do)
Somebody else will (do what you got to do)
Come on, baby (do)
