(Well, I got a little time, now tell me all about it)
Okay, listen

Oh so chained, I been chained so long
Getting free just don't seem real
(Child, that's sad)
I been running
(Now, who you been running from?)
Oh I been running, running so long
But I ain't getting nowhere
(Why, honey?)
Oh, well if he should take me
(Uh-huh, it's him again huh?)
I might come across
(Well I can understand that)
Or if he should hold me in his arms
(All right for the holdin', now!)
Then I might not be a total loss, yeah

I been down so low, getting up ain't crossed my mind
(I know what you mean)
And I been chained (uh-huh), oh so chained
(They do it every time)
I been chained so long
Getting free just don't seem real (girl...)
And I been running (uh-huh), oh running, running, running
(You thought you were)
I been running so long, I ain't going nowhere (uh-huh)

Oh, but if he takes me
(Now, you talking my kinda talk)
Yeah you know, I might come across
(I know you tried to play hard to get, yeah)
Ooh ooh, take me baby (that'll do it every time)
I just might not be a total loss (yeah)

Down, down, yeah, so down...
Oh, but if he should take me (take me, baby)
I might come across (I might come across)
Oh, I'd just love for that man to take me, baby
(Oh, take me baby)
Then I might not be a total loss (total loss)
Oh, take me, daddy (woo-hoo)
You know I might come across (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh, take me baby (come on, take me daddy, yeah)
You know I might not be a total loss, yeah

Come on, come on, come on, come on daddy (come on baby)
Oh, take me in your big fat arms (take me in your arms)
Let me all night, hold me tight (ah, I hear ya!)
Then I might not be a total loss
Oh, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on baby
(Oh, come on baby)
You know I just might come across (I might come across)...
