Ruffin, Jimmy - If You Will Let Me, I Know I Can Lyrics
Baby I know I blew your mind, oh yeah
Oh, I just kept on hanging around you
I thought you needed me near, oh yes I did now
Thought some day we'd settle down, yeah yeah
Just trying to make it home, oh baby
And if you let me, I know I can
I can sail this ship on dry land, oh baby
If you let me I know I can be a man, oh baby
Take a chance, oh baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
I know you told me from the start how
"Lord, my mind's already made up"
I was gonna take care of you darling, yes I was now
Tryin' to run the game on you, no baby, no no
Just trying to make you see, hey yeah yeah
And if you let me, I know I can
Sail this ship on dry land, oh baby
And if you let me I know I can yeah, yeah
Be a man, oh baby, won't you understand
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Hey, hey, take me baby, oh
Tryin' to run the game on you, no baby, no no
Just trying to make you see
My mind's gone off and left me
My heart's beatin' with you, yeah
And baby I miss you, oh baby baby
Sail this ship on dry land
And if you let me I know I can
I can build you a house on quicksand
Oh baby, and if you let me I know I can, yeah
Be a man, oh baby, won't you understand
Come on honey now, take a chance
And just let me be your man
'Cause I'll do anything baby
Anything you want, want, want, want, want, want me to do now, yeah
Let me, I know I can
I can sail this ship, baby
Sail it on dry land if you let me

Also done by the 4 tops
Chech out Eddie Kendrick's version
I always thought Eddie Kendricks version was the only one.
The 4 tops did it too
Yeah... James Jamerson did his funk on it!! And the badass breakdown of the outro which is JJ and the orchestra alternately groove.... that really sounds brand new and gorgeous. What a inventive masterpiece.
Jimmy Ruffin's original mix. Later it was remade first by the 4 Tops and then Eddie Kendricks under a new title "If You Let Me." Eddie's remake was much popular
Never heard this.what kinda fire was James Jamerson spittin on this my goodness
Jamerson is killing on this!
Never heard this before. What a gem! Thk U
