Womack, Bobby - (If You Want My Love) Put Something Down On It Lyrics
Lordy, Lord
Lordy, Lord
Hmmm Hmmm
[Bobby speaking:]
When you wanted something
you had to put it in will call
And that same thing applies
to anyone that's looking for love
And that's why I'm tellin' you
[Singing:]
If you want my love -- baby --
Put something down on it
Put something down on it
But you could use a little time on it
by puttin something down on it
I can tell by the look in your eye
you've been hurt by love before
But that's the price you have to pay
sometime's life is hard and rough
But you can't give up.
can't give up, can't give up
So, if you want this love un giving, honey
you gotta put something down on it
put something down on it
[background sings:] spend a little time on it
I know you're sad and you got to be lonely
spend a little time on it
spend a little time on it
Put something down on it
And oooh, sometimes temp is just a little to much
and with a touch a love -- how can ya give up
you see the roads of life is hard and rough
You might give in sometime
but you can't give up --
Whoaaa
[bridge:]
Be with me girl when my chips are down
'Cause tomorrow the whole thing
done turned around --
And I can remember
you were there -- when the chips were down
chips were down
Ohhh!!
If you want my love, honey
put something down it
put something down it
spend a little time on it
All ya gotta do, girl
ohhhh, ohhhh, baby
[background singing:] put something down it
put something down it
spend a little time on it
There's a thing called love
and it's has no boundary, right
[background singing:] put something down it
put something down it
spend a little time on it
It's Gotta be in your heart,
and not just in your mind baby
Ohhh baby
Awwww
You'll seek, and you shall find
yes you'll find, yes you'll find
in time in time
I think I'll make you my woman
cause I gotta whole lotta time
that I wanna use on it, baby
I like what you do to me girl
Awwww, Yeah
[background singing with Bobby:] put something down it
put something down it
spend a little time on it
All ya gotta do is
put something down on it -- Baby
Awwwww

Da Ya Think I'm Sexy
Rod Stewart jacked the string section off this song, and Jorge Ben's vocal line off the song "Taj Mahal" (which the singer Taj Mahal playfully switched the title to "Jorge Ben" for his song which kept the vocal line)..

My father listened to Womack when i was a kid, I hated it. 30 years later this is all i listen too😎
Ken Fresh that love from the womack
That love.
Ken Fresh Mannn, oh how times change😂
Same with my father. As well as all kinds of other music. Which is why musically, I'm all over the place. I love this music. And Love speaking about artist in depth. Best gift he could of gave me.
Ken Fresh yeah that boy the truth I'm young but I was raised up on this kinda music I luv this shit
Fucking great song. I have 6 Womack records, and this is among my favorite tracks of any of them.
+Bobby Davis That's alright man. U are one of the few white people Ive seen on here that like Bobby Womack. U know good singing when u hear it. What albums do u have by him?
@what up my neighbor! Lookin' for a Love Again, I Don't Know what the World is Coming to, Roads of Life, The Poet 1 and 2, and Someday We'll All Be Free
Good collection!
Did Rod Stewart steal the string part for "Do You Think I'm Sexy"?
+colbito Just straight jacked it from him. Bobby Womack's Estate needs to holla at Marvin Gaye's estate Lawyer. Handle That there
damn nice strings. Love womack. How cool was he?
I thought the same thing! Rod is a crook...he started this sampling and no one knew about it...and blamed it on the rappers....Rod Stewart, stand up!
Yes. He also copied Taj Mahal, from Jorge Ben in it
bobby we love you, you're one of the greatest w/lots of talent & jams forever. RIP
RIP Bobby - Does anyone else think that this track MUST have been the basis for Rod Stewart's "do you think I'm sexy?" Listen to the drum and base line - if you speed it a bit. What a great loss! We will miss you Bobby.
@topeka cate Look up: "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy" by Rod Stewart on songfacts.com. The trivia section will explain the details of which artists Rod Stewart stole musical material from (and the consequences too).
topeka cate yes this and yak mahal’s “ Jorge Ben” he mixed the two to make his song
It WAS! Rod Stewart was a massive fan and admitted he used this as inspiration. Stewart covered many R&B tracks throughout his career, his favourite singer is Sam Cooke
IT IS THE BASIS FOR ROD'S HIT...AINT GOTTA "THINK" ABOUT IT.
in 40 jr zo spec
Bobby I will miss you I'll keep you in my Heart.
Wow!..just heard the news..RIP...he was one that knew how to sing about the facts of life...and we all could identify..what he was singing about...another great..leaving us so much to enjoy...God bless...Him...And He shared his talent and gift to all...His journey continue...Love ya!..Bobby!,,,a fan..from the past...
when music was real,and singers put their hearts into it...God bless Bobby Womack and the real R&B Singers of the past....real music,yes in deed R.I.P.
Put something DOWN on it 💯
The Roots played this song when Rod Stewart was a guest on Jimmy Fallon! And dude didn't acknowledge the jam.... #youbettarecognize
Yung Savage...love your comment. As long as I acknowledge his genius its all good!
I will always love Bobby Womack he sings to my soul. He an "ole school" brother who we ladies can no longer find these days. During our time the brothers "talked" to the women and serenade us. Bobby remind me of the days gone by never to recapture again.
Tuneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
A true Soul warrior Bobby is after dealing with various health issues, in the last few yrs he has fought of pneumonia, prostate cancer & colon cancer, then suffered early signs of alzheimers when he couldnt even remember words of songs on stage, he said " how could i not even remember songs i wrote?" but a fighter bouces back & he has
Ha! Two people disliked this! Are they fucking retarded? BOOM!
What an incedible soul singer, the best after Sam Cooke IMO !
A British Musician stealing from another Black musician , what a surprise ... and take look at David Bowie's new Anti - Christian Video , another gift to America , but that's the plan ... has a nice Masonic Floor in video too . But there's no CONSPIRACY , CONSPIRACY , CONSPIRACY .....
Sounds so good I listen to him everyday!!
Love it!
Wonderful!!
You are right. It is Rod Stewart who stole from 2 songs to make "Da ya think I'm sexy". Bobby Womack never stole from Jorge Ben's "Taj Mahal". "If you want my love" and "Taj Mahal" are 2 different songs. My bad.
BOBBY WOMACK HAS WRITTEN OVER 400 SONGS, AND HE DOES NOT NEED TO BORROW ANYTHING FROM ANYBODY. HE STILL PACKS THEM IN WHERE EVER HE PERFORMS.
Rod stole the melody, it' a fact.
There has been no deal or any agreement between Bobby Womack and Rod Steward
My lord, his voice is SUPERB!
This that shit right here!...Harlem, after hours spots...goin hard back in the day...shout out to BW!
Say IT!
Just love this song!!!
HE HAS THE VOICE-I COULD LISTEN TO HIM ALL DAY
Awesome, thats all I can say!
This is my Jam! bad ass base line. cheers mr womack!
@warrenginmartini I couldn't believe my ears when I heard this song. Whoa! Glad I'm not the only who picked up on it immediately. Must check out JORGE BEN'S TAJ MAHAL now :-)
@warrenginmartini Actually this song has nothing to do with Taj Mahal, Rod Stewart did plagiarize both songs, the riff from this song and the chorus from Taj Mahal. Just listen to both and see for yourself, this song is just this song.
What he said!
