Lyrics
Shoo doo, shoo doo

Oh, many say that I’m too young
To let you know just where I come from
Oh, but you will see that it’s just a matter of time
My love will surely make you mine

Oh, living in a world of ghetto life
Everybody around seems so uptight
Nothing’s wrong
It’s alright with my man, my man

I like the kinds of ways we have our fun
His loving ways send me on and on
Yeah, hey, with my man
People out there can understand

I’m giving him something he can feel
Oh, oh, to let him know my love is real
Hey, hey, hey
I’m giving him something he can feel
Yes, I am, babe
To let you know my love is real

So much love for us to see
So much hope for material things
Are they only in my dreams

So I wrote this song for you
To prove that real things do come true
Tell me, tell me what it means
I wanna know, baby

Living in a world of ghetto life
Everybody around seems so uptight
Nothing’s wrong it’s alright, my man

I like the kinds of ways we have our fun
His loving ways sends me on an on
Woo, with my man
People out there can you understand

I’m giving him something he can feel
I sure want you to have it, baby
To let you know my love is real
My love is real
Giving him something he can feel
Ooh, baby, ooh, baby
I want you to know this love
Yeah, yeah

Giving him something he can feel
To feel it, feel it all
I love you, I love you, I love you
Giving him something he can feel
Let me give what what you really need, baby
Giving him something he can feel
Can you feel it, can you feel it, feel it, feel it
Giving him something he can feel
Ooh, we feel it, baby
Giving him something he can feel
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Giving him something he can feel
Feel it baby, feel it baby, feel it baby
Giving him something he can feel
Yeah, feel it, baby
You’re gonna know my love is real
Yeah, baby
Giving him something he can feel
Every day, baby
You’re gonna know this love is real
Yeah, yeah, yeah

You know, baby
I just can’t get enough of your funky stuff, no, no
Oh, oh, baby
You make it so good
You turn a woman around
Yes, you will
And I wanna run it and tell it all over town

Living in a world of ghetto life
Everybody around seems so uptight
Nothing’s wrong
And it’s alright, my man
I like the kind of ways we have our fun
Your loving ways send me on an on
Yeah, with my man
People out there can you understand

Giving him something he can feel
To let him know this love is real
Giving him something he can feel
To let him know this love is real
Do you know, do you know, do you know
Giving him something he can feel
Giving him something he can feel

Català – Una Cosa Que Pot Sentir
Shoo doo, shoo doo

Oh, alguns diuen que sóc massa jove
Per tal que puguis saber exactament d’on vinc
Oh, però ja veuràs que és només qüestió de temps
Estic segura que el meu amor et farà meu

Oh, vivint en un món de vides en gueto
Tothom al voltant sembla tan tens
Res de dolent
Tot va bé amb el meu home, el meu home

M’agrada la varietat de formes amb les que ens divertim
Les seves adorables maneres d’estimar-me una i altra vegada
Sí, si, amb el meu home
La gent no pot entendre que

Li estic donant una cosa que pot sentir
Oh, oh, per fer-li saber que el meu amor és real
Hey, hey, hey
Li estic donant una cosa que pot sentir
Sí, sóc jo, nen
Per fer-te saber que el meu amor és real

Tant amor per nosaltres
Tanta esperança per les coses materials
Són només als meus somnis

Així que he escrit aquesta cançó per a tu
Per demostrar-te que les coses reals es fan realitat
Digue’m, digue’m el que significa per a tu
Ho vull saber, nen

Vivint en un món de vides en gueto
Tothom al voltant sembla tan tens
Res de dolent, tot va bé amb el meu home

M’agrada la varietat de formes amb les que ens divertim
Les seves adorables maneres d’estimar-me una i altra vegada
Woo, amb el meu home
Gent, podeu entendre que

Li estic donant una cosa que pot sentir
De debó que vull que ho tinguis, nen
Per fer-li saber que el meu amor és real
El meu amor és real
Donant-li una cosa que pot sentir
Ooh, nen, ooh, nen
Vull que conegueu aquest amor
Sí, sí

Donant-li una cosa que pot sentir
Per sentir-ho, sentir-ho tot
T’estimo, t’estimo, t’estimo
Donant-li una cosa que pot sentir
Deixa’m donar-te el que realment necessites, nen
Donant-li una cosa que pot sentir
Pots sentir-ho, pots sentir-ho, nota-ho, nota-ho
Donant-li una cosa que pot sentir
Oh, ho sentim junts, nen
Donant-li una cosa que pot sentir
Sí, sí, sí

Donant-li una cosa que pot sentir
Sent-ho nen, sent-ho nen, sent-ho nen
Donant-li una cosa que pot sentir
Sí, sent-ho, nen
Sabràs que el meu amor és real
Sí, nen
Donant-li una cosa que pot sentir
Cada dia, nen
Sabràs que el meu amor és real
Sí, sí, sí

Ja saps, nen
No en tinc mai prou de les teves coses, no, no
Oh, oh, nen
Ho fas molt bé
Fas que una dona millori
Sí, ho faràs
I vull córrer i explicar-ho a tota la ciutat

Vivint en un món de vides en gueto
Tothom al voltant sembla tan tens
Res de dolent
Tot va bé, el meu home
M’agrada la varietat de formes amb les que ens divertim
Les seves adorables maneres d’estimar-me una i altra vegada
Sí, amb el meu home
Gent, podeu entendre que

Li estic donant una cosa que pot sentir
Per fer-li saber que aquest amor és real
Donant-li una cosa que pot sentir
Per fer-li saber que aquest amor és real
Ja saps, ja saps, ja saps
Donant-li una cosa que pot sentir
Donant-li una cosa que pot sentir
