Desdemona

[Verse 1: Gene Anthony Ray]
Ooh, my Desdemona
Our loving's been so good
You know I want to own ya
I wonder if I could

[Verse 2: Carlo Imperato, Valerie Landsburg, Carlo Imperato & Valerie Landsburg]
Such a fine kind of lady
Making the boys so crazy
There's something you should know
About Desdemona

[Chorus: Gene Anthony Ray & Carlo Imperato]
Don't you ever leave me
Don't know what I'd do (Don't know what he'd do)
Can't I just believe your love is really true? (Desdemona)
She just might deceive you
Take you for a fool (Take you for a fool)
I can't stand the thought of someone touching you (Desdemona)

[Verse 3: Gene Anthony Ray]
You say that she's been messing
With a friend of mine
Don't you keep me guessing
What I'm gonna find
('Bout Desdemona)

[Verse 4: Carlo Imperato & Gene Anthony Ray]
She's not just your woman
You're not her only man (Not her only man)
If I can't have her for myself
Then no one can (Desdemona)

[Chorus: Gene Anthony Ray & All]
I'm warning you
Don't know what I'll do
If your love isn't true (Desdemona)
He's warning you
Don't know what he'll do
If your love isn't true
Desde—, Desde—, Desdemona

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge: Gene Anthony Ray & All]
Desdemona (Don't you ever leave him)
Watch your step (Don't know what he'd do)
(Don't know what he'd do)
If you're stepping out on me (He just can't believe your love)
(Is really true, Desdemona)
Desdemona (She just might deceive you)
Don't know what I'll do (Take you for a fool)
(Take you for a fool)
If you leave me (He can't stand the thought of someone)
(Touching you, Desdemona)

[Chorus: Gene Anthony Ray & All]
I'm warning you
Don't know what I'll do
If your love isn't true (Desdemona)
He's warning you
Don't know what he'll do
If your love isn't true

[Outro: All]
Desde—, Desde—, Desdemona
Desde—, Desde—, Desdemona
Desde—, Desde—, Desdemona
He's warning you
