Artist/Band: Ray Charles
Lyrics for Song: I'll Be Good to You
Lyrics for Album: Icon [2011]



I want to know, baby

Just how you feel, girl

Said I wanna know

If what you feel is real, girl



'Cause there's a reason

For the things that I say, what I talk about

But oh, I wanna love ya girl

In a special way, come 'ere woman



We've been together

For so very long

I'd hate to break up

Break up my happy home



(The way we stand and the way we lie)

The way we lie

(The way we love and the way we cry)

Girl, we cry



(Of all these things, there comes a time)

There's a time

(Makes me feel that it's worth a try)

Makes me feel, it's worth a try

(I'll be good to you)



Good to ya, good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, I'll be good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, I'll be good to ya



Girl you said, we've been together

So very long, very long

I would hate to break up

Break up my happy home



Let me take off your shoes

Take a stand, now

And let me know how

Ooh always baby, and all your know-how



(The way we stand and the way we lie)

The way we lie

(The way we love and the way we cry)

The way we cry

(Of all these things, there lies a time)

(Makes me feel that it's worth a try)



I'll be good to you, good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, I'll be good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, I'll be good to ya



Good to ya, good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, I'll be good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, I'll be good to ya



Girl, I'll be good to you, babe

Y'know I'll be good to you, take you shopping

You know what I mean baby? Anything you want

I'll be good to you



I'll give it up, with my credit cards

Like Visa, Master Charge, American Express

Turn my pants upside down

Any day of the week



Oh, you, you, you

Come here, give me love

Talk to me



I'll be good to you, good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, I'll be good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, I'll be good to ya



Good to ya, good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, I'll be good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, I'll be good to ya



Good to ya, good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, I'll be good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, good to ya, good to ya

I'll be good to ya, I'll be good to ya
