Worth My While

Lyrics

[Intro] Bootsy had something to do with it? He had everything to do with it and you'd be surprised. He had a lot to do with a whole lot of my friends falling in love and gettin' married Why you say that? Because we listened to his music all the time whenever we thought we was finna argue. Throw on a little Bootsy, you forget about all that [Intro: Bootsy Collins] Oh This is the school for fools in love Did I mention? Pay attention Another 40 days, 40 nights I gotta get my love life right I'd just like to say Welcome to my Milky Way, baby And you better believe there's a heart breakin' every day (Every day) Oh, ain't nothin' wrong with havin' fun Unless you ain't gettin' none, baby And that brings us to this occasion True lover's dedication Now, talk to me, baby [Chorus: Kali Uchis and Bootsy Collins] Can you make it worth my while? Go on and show me, babe Can you make it worth my while? Uh, I certainly can Yeah, I think that change is about to come, baby Watch me, now Come on, make it worth my while (It's been a long time) Go on and lead the way (But I think I'm ready, baby) Come on, make it worth my while Just explain what you mean, baby [Verse 1: Kali Uchis and Bootsy Collins] When I'm with him, all I ever do What you talkin' about? Is reminisce over you In funk we thrust, who else been on my bus? I close my eyes, try to think it through But you know, I'm stuck to you like glue Oh, oh, oh Oh, now that's some unsportsmanlike conduct, baby [Chorus: Kali Uchis and Bootsy Collins] Can you make it worth my while? Go on and show me, babe Can you make it worth my while? Uh, I certainly can Yeah, I think that change is about to come, baby Watch me, now Come on, make it worth my while (It's been a long time) Go on and lead the way (But I think I'm ready, baby) Come on, make it worth my while My dearly baby, I got something to say [Verse 2: Bootsy Collins] What I'd like to say to you Is, girl, you know that I love you too And if you turn and walk away Ah, I'm not even a dog, I'm just a stray, babe But what I'd like to say would be (And I didn't mean any harm) I need your love and honesty (And I didn't wanna do you no wrong) I thought I made our little house a home And now I'm so alone Now, that's some unsportsmanlike conduct [Bridge: Bootsy Collins] Oh no, the trickle-down effect, baby Sometimes the pain hurts more than it hurts you, baby girl Now check this out, baby What I'd like to do with you Oh, any man, would wanna do And that's hold you in my arms and let life live on That's hold you in my arms and let life live on (Pretty thing, boy) (Yeah) (Stalkin', walkin') (Chicken hawkin', baby) (Yeah) (Listen while I recite oral history, baby) [Chorus: Kali Uchis and Bootsy Collins] Can you make it worth my while? Go on and show me, babe Can you make it worth my while? What you mean, it's a dream? Come on, make it worth my while (This is Brother Nature calling, baby) Go on and lead the way (Yeah) Come on, make it worth my while (From the west side of the wing of Heaven, baby) [Outro: Bootsy Collins] I'm virtually nothing Yeah And you're always a new adventure in my world, baby He's the potter and I'm the clay Whatever you look around, I'm on display They call me Brother Nature (Call me Brother Nature) Like a book with no pages I came from the west wing (I came from the west wing) With nothing (With nothing)
