Philip Bailey - Back It Up Lyrics



Philip Bailey - Back It Up Lyrics




Back it up, gotta back it up
+
You know I said you just talk, talk, talk
+
But can you back it up
+
Seen through the eyes of a stranger
+
Running your mouth is a danger
+
To yourself and everybody else
+
(everybody else, don't)
+
Don't say that I never told you
+
I can't take your word that just won't do
+
It's hit or miss, I'll tell you this
+
Now put your money where your mouth is
+
You gotta back it up, back it up
+
Gotta back it up, you know I've had enough
+
I said you just talk, talk, talk
+
But can you back it up
+
Now, now, after all is said and done
+
I'll lay the odds, make it two to one
+
Your number is past, you won't make it last
+
(You won't last long)
+
Now you keep hittin' ten the hard way
+
Double or nothing you can't stay
+
Talk is cheap, and oohwee
+
Are you gettin' in too deep
+
You gotta back it up, back it up
+
Gotta back it up, you know I've had enough
+
I said you just talk, talk, talk
+
But can you back it up
+
You gotta back it up, back it up
+
Gotta back it up, you know I've had enough
+
Enough, I said you just talk, talk, talk
+
But can you back it up
+
You know that talk is cheap
+
You're chokin' on words you can't keep
+
Now are you feeling weak?
+
You gotta back it up, back it up
+
Gotta back it up, you know I've had enough
+
Enough I'm saying talk, talk, talk
+
But can you back it up
+
You gotta back it up, back it up
+
Gotta back it up, you know I've had enough
+
Enough I'm saying talk, talk, talk
+
But can you back it up
+
You gotta back it up, back it up
+
Gotta back it up, you know I've had enough
+
Enough, I said you just talk, talk, talk
+
But can you back it up
+
You gotta back it up, back it up
+
Gotta back it up, you know I've had enough
+
