Let them knock upon my door
Until their hands are black and blue
I'm not answering for no one
Until my man and I are through
When we're makin' love
You know the world ain't got nothin', oh, nothin' to do
'Cause when we're makin' love
I won't answer to nobody but you, oh yeah
Nobody but you, babe
I ain't gonna answer to nobody, no, no
They can call me on the phone
But no matter how many times that phone rings, yeah
I'm not pickin' up for no one
Until that fat lady sings
When we're makin' love
Now you know the world ain't got nothin', oh, nothin' to do
When we're makin' love
I won't answer to nobody but you, oh yeah
Listen now, people, they ask a lot of me
Always one more than they got of me, yeah
Let them say I'm hard to find
I'll do what I gotta do
And bring it home, home to you
It's your love I got on my mind
Let them wait, let them wonder
Where I go and what I do, oh yeah, yeah
I'm not answering to no one, no
Until you and I are through
Oh, when we're makin' love
Ooh, you know the world ain't got nothin'
Oh, ain't got nothin' to do, no, no
When we're makin' love
I won't answer to nobody but you, oh, nobody but you
Nobody but you, oh
I ain't gonna answer to nobody but you, baby
Ah, no matter how many times the phone rings
Who's knockin' at the door
I'm not gonna answer, no, no, no, no, no
I ain't gonna answer, no, no, no, no
Ain't gonna pick up the phone, don't you try that, no
Nobody, nobody, nobody but you, oh
I ain't gonna answer to nobody but you
