Different Strokes for Different Folks

[Intro]
Uh, come here, baby
Loan me your mind
[Chorus]
If there's a will, there's a way to get to you
I said if there's a will, Lord, there's a way to get to you, baby
To get to you
[Verse 1]
Now, I'm on the outside lookin' in
The closest I can get to you is a casual friend
But that only gives me more determination
Lordy, I ain't got nothin' but soul, love and patience
[Chorus]
I said if there's a will (If there's a will), there's a way (There's a way) to get to you
(Gotta get to you, baby) Lord have mercy (Gotta get to you)
I said if there's a will (If there's a will), ah, there's a way (There's a way) to get to you, baby
(Gotta get to you, baby) Lord have mercy (Gotta get to you)
[Verse 2]
The closer we get (The closer we get), the far away you seem to be (Yeah)
The sweeter you look, mama, the bitter you treat me
But Lord, I don't want no other
And you don't want me to go any further
[Chorus]
Lord, if there's a will (If there's a will), there's a way (There's a way) to get to you
(Gotta get to you, baby) Lord (Gotta get, gotta get to ya)
If there's a will (If there's a will), ah, there's a way, way (There's a way) to get to you
(Gotta get to you, baby; gotta get, gotta get to ya)
[Verse 3]
Your daddy don't like me (Daddy don't like me)
Your mama say I ain't no good (No good)
Your brother say stay away from ya
I wish I could
Lost your holy reservation
Baby, we got to get a closer situation
[Chorus]
If there's a will (If there's a will), there's a way (There's a way) to get to you
(Gotta get to you, baby) Lord, to get to you (Gotta get, gotta get to ya)
Oh, hey, Lord (If there's a will), Lord, I wanna get to you, baby (There's a way)
I wanna get to your soul, baby (Gotta get to you, baby)
I got to get to you (Gotta get, gotta get to ya)
[Outro]
Early in the morning (Gotta get to you, baby)
Lord, Lord (Gotta get to you)
Lord, Lord (Gotta get to you, baby)
I gotta get to you, baby (Gotta get to you)
Lord, I got to love you so even if there's a line (Gotta get to you, baby)
Oh yeah (Gotta get to you)
There's a will (Gotta get to you, baby)
To be a way (Gotta get to you)
Someday, baby (Gotta get to you, baby)
Gonna love ya (Gotta get, gotta get to you)
Ain't no mountain high enough (Gotta get to you, baby)
Ain't no river wide
