Talk to Her

When you talk to her, talk to her

Like you want somebody to talk to your mama

Don't get smart with her, have a heart to heart with her

Just like you would with your daughter

'Cause everything you do or say

You gotta live with it everyday

She's somebody's baby

She's somebody's sister

She's somebody's mama

Now when you go to her, speak truthfully

Honest as you can be, from your heart

You're in a situation where you're losin' patience

Take your time and look her in the eye

When you just can't find the words you want

And it's hard to reach the point

Where you both can understand

Don't just tell the truth

But tell the whole truth

It'll make a better man outta you, yeah

When you talk to her, talk to her

Like you want somebody to talk to your mama

(Don't get smart)

Don't get smart with her, have a heart to heart with her

Just like you would with your daughter

('Cause everything you do)

'Cause everything you do or say

(And everything you say)

You gotta live with it everyday

She's somebody's baby

She's somebody's sister

She's somebody's mama

It doesn't matter if she's wearin'

A mini skirt or a business suit

Whether she's 25 or 99

Treat her the way your mama taught you to

She could be the Queen of Sheba (Sheba)

She could be a school teacher (Teacher)

A home maker or a lawyer

I think it's good for your karma

If you when you talk to her

When you talk to her, talk to her

Like you want somebody to talk to your mama (Oh)

Don't get smart with her, have a heart to heart with her

Just like you would with your daughter (With your daughter)

'Cause everything you do or say

You gotta live with it everyday

She's somebody's baby

She's somebody's sister

She's somebody's mama

Now let's keep it real

Nothin' in this world could ever exist

Without it's opposite

There has to be a sun and a moon

A man and a woman

And that's just the way it is

Humanity's one sided

And everybody's fightin'

How do we restore the peace?

Mother Earth is hurtin'

And everybody's searchin'

For that feminine energy

She's somebody's mama

When you talk to her, talk to her

Like you want somebody to talk to your mama

Just like you fight for your sister

If you know that somebody dissed her
