Oh come on, come on, come on, come on

                            
Didn't I make you feel    like you were my
                
only man.          Yeah and
                                               
didn't I give you nearly everything that a woman possibly can.

 But each night I tell myself that I,  that I think I've had enough
                                   
Well I'm gonna show you baby that a woman can be tough, I want you to
                       
come on, come on, come on, come on

out on the street looking good and baby deep down in your
                                          
heart I guess you know that it ain't right.    Now you never never
                                                 
hear me when I cry at night.  Babe and I cry all the time.

                                   
 But each time I tell myself that I, that I can't stand the pain,
                                        
but then you hold me in your arms, and I sing it once again.
                              
I sing come on, come on, come on, come onE               A                         B                B B A A
