[Intro]
Bootsy had something to do with it?
He had everything to do with it and you'd be surprised. He had a lot to do with a whole lot of my friends falling in love and gettin' married
Why you say that?
Because we listened to his music all the time whenever we thought we was finna argue. Throw on a little Bootsy, you forget about all that
[Intro: Bootsy Collins]
Oh
This is the school for fools in love
Did I mention? Pay attention
Another 40 days, 40 nights
I gotta get my love life right
I'd just like to say
Welcome to my Milky Way, baby
And you better believe there's a heart breakin' every day (Every day)
Oh, ain't nothin' wrong with havin' fun
Unless you ain't gettin' none, baby
And that brings us to this occasion
True lover's dedication
Now, talk to me, baby
[Chorus: Kali Uchis and Bootsy Collins]
Can you make it worth my while?
Go on and show me, babe
Can you make it worth my while?
Uh, I certainly can
Yeah, I think that change is about to come, baby
Watch me, now
Come on, make it worth my while (It's been a long time)
Go on and lead the way (But I think I'm ready, baby)
Come on, make it worth my while
Just explain what you mean, baby
[Verse 1: Kali Uchis and Bootsy Collins]
When I'm with him, all I ever do
What you talkin' about?
Is reminisce over you
In funk we thrust, who else been on my bus?
I close my eyes, try to think it through
But you know, I'm stuck to you like glue
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, now that's some unsportsmanlike conduct, baby
[Chorus: Kali Uchis and Bootsy Collins]
Can you make it worth my while?
Go on and show me, babe
Can you make it worth my while?
Uh, I certainly can
Yeah, I think that change is about to come, baby
Watch me, now
Come on, make it worth my while (It's been a long time)
Go on and lead the way (But I think I'm ready, baby)
Come on, make it worth my while
My dearly baby, I got something to say
[Verse 2: Bootsy Collins]
What I'd like to say to you
Is, girl, you know that I love you too
And if you turn and walk away
Ah, I'm not even a dog, I'm just a stray, babe
But what I'd like to say would be
(And I didn't mean any harm)
I need your love and honesty
(And I didn't wanna do you no wrong)
I thought I made our little house a home
And now I'm so alone
Now, that's some unsportsmanlike conduct
[Bridge: Bootsy Collins]
Oh no, the trickle-down effect, baby
Sometimes the pain hurts more than it hurts you, baby girl
Now check this out, baby
What I'd like to do with you
Oh, any man, would wanna do
And that's hold you in my arms and let life live on
That's hold you in my arms and let life live on
(Pretty thing, boy)
(Yeah)
(Stalkin', walkin')
(Chicken hawkin', baby)
(Yeah)
(Listen while I recite oral history, baby)
[Chorus: Kali Uchis and Bootsy Collins]
Can you make it worth my while?
Go on and show me, babe
Can you make it worth my while?
What you mean, it's a dream?
Come on, make it worth my while (This is Brother Nature calling, baby)
Go on and lead the way (Yeah)
Come on, make it worth my while (From the west side of the wing of Heaven, baby)
[Outro: Bootsy Collins]
I'm virtually nothing
Yeah
And you're always a new adventure in my world, baby
He's the potter and I'm the clay
Whatever you look around, I'm on display
They call me Brother Nature (Call me Brother Nature)
Like a book with no pages
I came from the west wing (I came from the west wing)
With nothing (With nothing)
