Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Say the word, oh, baby
I'm not like those guys, girl
Try, try, try, try to get all they can, girl
I'm a happy fella, so glad I fell in love with you
I'm not a sweeter man, be the man, be the man
Baby, ten percent with will do
[Verse 2]
Ooh, baby, alright
Ooh, no
Ooh, mama, yeah
[Verse 3]
I'm gonna call my name
Yeah, I'm come  runnin', baby
I need your love to see me through, love
Baby, each and every day, yeah
[Verse 4]
Ten percent of something (Ten percent of that something, baby)
Ten percent of something
It beats one hundred precent (Oh, baby)
Of nothing at all (All)
Ten percent of something (Ten percent of that something, baby)
Ten percent of something
It beats one hundred precent (Oh, baby)
Of nothing at all (All)
[Verse 5]
I only see you
Maybe once or twice a week (Once or twice a week)
You make it worth my while
You treat me like a king (Treat me like a king)
I cherish any time
That I can spend with you (I can spend with you)
Just say the words and I'll do anything
But you must be true, oh
[Verse 6]
Ten percent of something (Ten percent of that something, baby)
Ten percent of something
It beats one hundred precent (Oh, mama)
Of nothing at all (Ah-ah, ah-ah, I got to go, yeah)
Ten percent of something (Ten percent of that something)
Ten percent of something (Is better than nothing)
Ten percent of something (Ah-ah, ah-ah, and tender love, yeah)
Ten percent of something (And nothing at all)
Ten percent of something (Now you only see me, baby)
Ten percent of something (Maybe once or twice a week)
Ten percent of something
(But you treat me, treat me, treat me with love)
Ten percent of something (It's like a Congo, Congo king)
Ten percent of something (Oh, baby)
Ten percent of something (Ah, yeah)
[Verse 7]
Just say the word
Say the word
I'm not like those guys, love
Who try, try, try, try to get all they can, girl
To my love
I'm gonna be with you, be with you to run around
Oh-whoa-whoa, I feel good
Yes I will
Yes I will
Don't play me
[Verse 8]
Said I cherish, I cherish, I swear by god
Said I, you're the best
To do the best, girl
I need not one, not two, not three, baby
I need ten percent
Ooh, ooh, oh
[Verse 9]
Just say the words, ooh, baby
I'm not like those guys, girl
Who try, try, try, try to get all they can, girl
I'm a happy fella, so glad I fell in love with you
I'm not a sweeter man, be the man, be the man
Baby, ten percent will do
