Well, the bigger the city, well, the brighter the lights,
The bigger the dog, well, the harder the bite.
I don’t know where you been last night
But I’m thinkin’, mama, you ain’t doin’ right.
Say, I know a little,
I know a little ’bout it,
I know a little,
I know a little ’bout it.
I know a little ’bout love,
baby, I can guess the rest.
Well, I don’t read that daily news
’cause it ain’t hard to figure why people gets the blues.
If they can’t dig what they can’t use,
If they’d stick to themselves they’d be much less abused.
Say, I know a little,
Lord, I do know a little ’bout it,
I know a little,
I know a little ’bout it.
I know a little ’bout love,
baby, I can guess the rest.
Well, you want me to be your only man.
Said, listen, mama, did you all I can.
Do right, baby, by your man.
Don’t worry, mama, teach you all I can.
Say, I know a little,
Lord, I know a little ’bout it,
I know a little,
I know a little ’bout it.
I know a little ’bout love
and baby, I can guess the rest.
Well, I know a little ’bout love.
Baby, I want your best.
