What's In It For Me
(Billy Burnette/Bekka Bramlett/Annie Roboff)

Thought we had a good thing baby

You Pulled the wool over my eyes

I should've seen it coming baby

Now all I see is a cool love dying

Honey I don't want to hold you down

Why you gotta own the lock and the key (tell me baby)

A good thing don't just come around

And you can't have it for free (not me)

You've been a river of give

And an ocean of take

Darlin' for heaven's sake

Chorus:

You got me up and down and in between

Actin' nice and bein' real mean

Well, you hold me tight then you've turning your back

Who could deal with that

You say you wanna work it out

Well tell me what's in it for me

You've living in your own world

You act like I'm just passing though

I don't wanna be your welcome mat

Don't treat me like I'm a fool (for you)

And don't you wanna be happy

Don't you know how good that could be

Seems everybody's tellin' you something

That they know you wanna hear

But you ain't gonna hear that from me

You've been a valley of love

And a mountain of need

Now baby it's time you see
