Backbone
Lyricist:Gerald Levert, Niles Mckinney
Uhh, oh girl Well well well well well well well Uhh, oh baby Listen to me Uh huh
Just got laid off from work today I can't go home What am I gonna say Guess I'll go to the local bar, toss up a few Tell the bartender what I'm goin' through
He said, if you got a good woman She gon' catch you when you fall So instead of givin' me an earful Here's a quarter, you need to call her So here I am baby
If tonight I cry (Oh baby) I need you to be strong Will you be my shoulder? (Oh baby) Girl you are my backbone, my backbone And I'm fallin' apart
My little boy birthday is coming', yeah And he want that play station too, yes he do What am I gonna tell him? Gotta save 'cause the rent is due The rent is due
You say, you'll get another job, yes you do girl But I won't put you through that Just hold me close tonight Say everything will be alright I just need to know, I need to know you got my back

Girl I know it's really messed up I think the Lord is tryin' to test us (Yes he is) Better half never meant so much to me Like any real man I want my family to have everything and anything But I'm strugglin' to get on my feet
If tonight I cry (Oh baby) I need you to be strong (Baby) Girl you're my shoulder Baby you're my backbone, my backbone And this man is fallin' apart
I don't wanna cry so I need you to be strong For the kids and the family Can't let 'em see us down 'Cause you know they gon' kick ya When ya down and out (Backbone, backbone) See nobody wants you nobody even cares
(If tonight I cry) If tonight, if tonight, if tonight, if tonight I cry Baby, won't you be strong, ooh 'Cause you are, will you be, you need to be You gotta be my shoulder
