My baby and I are back together again

The lovin'is better than it's ever been

If it weren't for the trials we been through

I'd never have the courage to come back to you

We're all entitled to make a mistake

We got to prepare for some heartbreak

I was earnin'my man while I was learnin'my man

Something you young girls might not understand

No pain no pain no gain no

No pain no pain no gain

There was an old lady sitting under the tree

She called me over and she said to me

My days left here may not be long

I wouldn't waste my time telling you nothing wrong

But love is a flower that needs the sun and the rain

A little bit of pleasure is worth a whole lot of pain

If you learn this secret how to forgive

A longer and a better life you'll live

No pain no pain no gain

No pain no pain no gain

Anything worth having at all

Is worth working for and waiting for

Some of my closest friends have thought

They had they thing on a string

Just 'cause their man was bringing them

Flowers and candy and all kinds of gifts

Um um honey some gifts are just

To make them feel better while he's on his guilt trip

About the night before

（You know what I mean）

Especially when you know you have

Not been doin'the things you should do

Think about it what is a man trying

To tell you some times flowers

Mean maybe we should just be friends

Do you get my drift hang if you can hang no pain no gain

In order to get something you got to give something

In order to be something you got to go through something

Be a cook in the kitchen a lady in the streets

You can't show your teeth to every guy you meet

It's alright to be a little sweet but be a momma with the kids

And 'you know what'in the sheets

No pain no pain no gain

No pain no pain no gain

See you can't give up 'cause times get hard

It's just that old devil trying to keep us apart

Say devil you ain't got nothing here

I'm goin'to my man and have no fear

No pain no pain no gain

No pain no pain no gain

No pain no pain no gain

No no no no

No pain no pain no gain

No pain no pain no gain

No pain no pain no gain

In order to get something you got to give something

In order to be something you got to go through something

No pain no pain no gain

No pain no pain no gain

No pain no pain no gain

No pain no pain no gain

No pain no pain no gain

No pain no pain no gain

No pain no pain no gain

No pain no pain no gain

No pain no pain no gain

No pain no pain no gain

No pain no pain no gain
