Ah, ah, ah
  Things just ain't the way that they used to be
  Back in the day when a man meant security
  He'd be working hard all week
  Baby kick back and throw up your feet
  Let me fix you a treat
  So it might be love and sweet
    But he's worth it
  He deserves it
  May not be perfect
  But he's all the man I need
  He's ready and willing
  Gives me the feeling, ah
  And whenever we're together
  I know where I belong
    [chorus:]
  It's just the way he looks into your eyes
  Love that man
  It's the love he gives that makes you fantasize
  Love that man
  It's the time he takes to show you that he cares
  And he's always there (He's always always there)
  Don't you love that man (I know)
    Things they ain't the way they used to be
  When a woman and a man work hard to be
  Happy in love and stand together ooh
  (Let's stay that way forever)
    Never give in to a fight
  Just trying work it out
  Never give up on him
  That's not what love's about
  Stay true to your feelings
  And remember
  All the things he's done for you
    [Repeat Chorus]
    You'd better know I'm talking about that old-school love
  That everlasting feeling can never be too much
  Somebody loves you heart and soul
  Hold on, don't stop
  And never let him go
    [Repeat Chorus]
