The Real Thing

I wanna hear you say yeah!



I wanna marry you, more than a hound will love a bone

Because I love you, more than a king loves his throne.

And if we don't do the real thing,

I'm not the same,

I wanna hear you say yeah!



'Cause I wanna do the real thing, oh

I wanna do the real thing

And if we don't do the real thing,

I'm not the same,

I wanna hear you say yeah!



I love you, more than a camel loves a desert

Because I need you, more than a chicken needs his feathers

And if we don't do the real thing,

I'm not the same,

I wanna hear you say yeah!



'Cause I wanna do the real thing, oh

I wanna do the real thing

And if we don't do the real thing,

I'm not the same,

I wanna hear you say yeah!



You asked my momma if you could be her son-in-law

My momma told you she would not be your ma-in-law

But if we don't do the real thing,

I'm not the same,

I wanna hear you say yeah!



'Cause I wanna do the real thing, oh

I wanna do the real thing

And if we don't do the real thing,

I'm not the same,

I wanna hear you say yeah!
