Temptations, The - Try It Baby Lyrics






Now you're moving on up, pretty baby
You're leaving me behind
Everybody seems to love you
Ooh, you're doing just fine, fine, fine

Take away your good looks
And all your fancy clothes
I bet you want to try it baby
And you'll see
That nobody loves you but me
Now what do you think about that?

Hey, Melvin
Now you tell me that you so busy
Ooh, baby you ain't got much time
Oh, how will I remember, babe
When all your time was mine, mine, mine

Well move on back cross the track
Yeah, where you came from
Yeah, why don't you just try it baby
And you'll see
Nobody loves you but me
Yeah, nobody but me
Try it

If you think I'm lying
Try it
Try it baby

Ooh, well move on back cross the track, baby
Yeah, where you came from
Come on and try, try it honey, try it baby, try it sweet
And you'll see
Nobody loves you but me
Nobody loves you but me

Listen, I really want to hold you, pretty baby
In my arms again
But I can't get close to you
For all your love afraid
But take your name from the bad list
And tear me your arms through
Come on and try it baby
I'm gonna try it sweetheart
Try it honey
You'll see, nobody loves you but me
Nobody but me

Temptations, The Try It Baby Comments
  1. T.... R....

    i enjoyed it

  2. l.... d....

    Diana Ross has a sexy voice 😍😍😍 The boss backing up the Temptation 😁😁😁

  3. J.... P....

    Are The Supremes on this version?

    J.... P....

    James Pickett Yes, you can hear them in the background when Diana sings

  4. M.... B....

    Best part of this is Diana and the backing vocals.

  5. T.... ....

    Diana Ross luscious, sensual, bluesy, soulful vocals are exactly what this fine track needed.
    Mr. Melvin's creamy bass and Paul Williams' tenor were the perfect counterpoint.

  6. A.... R....

    Marvin aint got nothing on this version

    A.... R....

    I concur!

    A.... R....

    Ahmad Rsshad I beg to differ.

  7. M.... ....

    DIANA ROSS and Her 2 FAMOUS GROUPS That She Recorded with at MOTOWN RECORDS

  8. B.... D....

    The Temps are good. I like Marvin Gaye's version better.

    B.... D....

    Bertha Daniels So do I.

    B.... D....

    On the original by Marvin, the Temptations are the background singers.

  9. H.... Z....

    Sorry. This doesn't hold a candle to Marvin's version.

  10. e.... ....

    Wow where is the video on this bummer? 💕💕💕

  11. M.... P....

    WOW I have never heard this version before
    The Temptations sang background vocals on Marvin Gaye song.
    The narrator of the song is saying come back to wear you belong the people on the well to do side don't love you but me.
    Dian Ross should've taken a hint from this song that Berry Gordy Jr Wrote. LOL
    Melvin was one of the best Bass singers that ever sang.

    M.... P....

    Glad you liked it

    M.... P....

    @gua117
    Thank you Melvin and Paul tore this song up but i felt it would've been a little bit more soulful  Bluesier if Flo or Mary sang lead

    M.... P....

    Pretty impossible for Flo to sing anything on this recording as she was no longer with the Supremes at this time, and Cindy had taken her place. Diana did a great job all the same

    M.... P....

    @jonsa75
    I was talking about if Flo was with them SMH

    M.... P....

    MusicLover P Berry Gordy was telling Diana Ross this through the version Marvin Gaye sang.

  12. t.... w....

    I love this song. I love hearing Marvin's version because the Temps sang back ground on it!

    t.... w....

    thomas washington r

  13. m.... r....

    Great arrangement and vocals.  Just classic.

    m.... r....

    @mike ritchie I agree, i love this arrangement.

  14. J.... N....

    Marvin Gaye put the soul in and on this song!

  15. D.... W....

    Paul knocked it out of the park!

    D.... W....

    Demetrius Williams I ALWAYS LOVE WHEN PAUL GETS LEAD.

  16. D.... S....

    Diana Ross is so classy, sexy and jazzy on this! Amazing woman. They never did this on a TV show, however.

    D.... S....

    I saw them do this.....on TV

    D.... S....

    of course it was on t.v.  back in the 60's...T.C. B.........OR THE G.I.T. TV SHOWS....

    D.... S....

    No it was on the Supremes/Temptations Together album, but was not featured on either TCB or GIT on Broadway Specials.

    D.... S....

    It was done on "The Temptations Show", with Kaye Stevens sing Diana Ross" part...

    Your welcome!!
