Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You do the right thing
You know you inspire me
You do the right thing
You know you inspire me
Can't go wrong, wrong
Wrong
You do the right thing
You know you inspire me
You, you
[Verse 2]
Look you tried to keep me away from temptations
Introduced me to The Temptations
Marvin Gaye and, Isley Brothers
Dancing so hard the living room shaking
Yeah we dance in the house
My mama's the man of the house
Mama you too good for other men
Even dad, you too good for him
Mama you know you inspire me
You deserve early retirement
You texting, tell me take my vitamins
When I got a new love, you invite 'em in
When we break up, you don't like 'em then
Loyal, loyal, swear you super loyal
Worth more to me than striking oil
You deserve the life I'm tryna show you
I remember all the sacrifices
Growing up in debt but never hungry
Rich in everything except money
That's that faith that you can't buy
But I buy that new crib you look right in it
I buy that new car, the color that you like
And they play my song every single time you drive in it
That's 'cause you inspired it
[Verse 3]
You do the right thing
You know you inspire me
You do the right thing
You know you inspire me
Can't go wrong, wrong
Wrong
You do the right thing
You know you inspire me
[Verse 4]
I know it's hard to get me on the line
I'm busy like every other time
Since I got a house in that other town
You wonder when I'ma come around
I know you worry 'bout me
I give you attitude like don't worry 'bout it
Don't hit you up, like I don't care about you
But I hold you down, man I swear I got you
I know I got problems communicating
I probably shoulda went to school
And got that degree in communications
I should be with you on vacation
I should take you where you should be taken
Asia, Africa, Dubai
Anything you want I do buy
Just want you to know I do try
I take care of you mama
You the one, you the one, you the one
You the moon, you the stars, you the sun
I'm so happy I'm your son
I'm so happy I'm your son
You loved me since day one
Since before day one
So before the day is done
I gotta gotta let you know
[Verse 5]
You do the right thing
You know you inspire me
You do the right thing
You know you inspire me
Can't go wrong, wrong
Wrong
You do the right thing
You know you inspire me
[Verse 6]
Look, mama you know you inspire me
If I ever made you not feel like it
Then this is my apology, so sorry
Dear mama
You know your son shines for you
I'm shining for you
My lady
Don't you ever let 'em talk to you crazy
Anything for the fam, how you raised me
I'm your baby, but you still my baby, aye
