Thought that I could bargain
Barter for your love
But you know it's such a sin
If you play the game of love to win, play it to win, oh no
Tell me where's my rightful place
Was is there in your sweet face
What mama said to me was true
You are what you love not what loves you
Hush now pretty baby, hush now pretty baby
Hush now pretty baby, hush now pretty baby
Hush now pretty baby
Somethin' deep inside of me died
When I found out all your lies
Tryin' to get myself some kind of meanin'
Gotta get me some healin'
Don't cheat yourself out of love
'Cause you know that's a bigger sin
To never know such sweetness
Never know completeness, now that's where I've been
Hush now pretty baby, hush now pretty baby
Hush now pretty baby, hush now pretty baby
Hush now pretty baby
Oh, where's my rightful place
Was is there in your sweet face
What mama said to me was true
You are what you love not what loves you
Gotta get me some healin', oh yeah
Gotta get me some healin'
(Hush now pretty baby, hush now pretty baby)
(Hush now pretty baby, hush now pretty baby)
