Martha Reeves & The Vandellas — It Aint Like That

[Verse 1] When you reach the top of the ladder Of success, I became second best Thought you were high society And you just as soon get rid of me [Pre-Chorus] Told me not to be hanging around And now that you miss my lovin', you found (Found out) I can't be replaced (Found out) The love I gave you cannot be erased (Found out) [Chorus] Now, what you say, boy? (What you say, what you say?) You say you want me back Well, uh-uh It ain't like that (No no no no) No no, it ain't like that (No no no) Can't be, can't be like that (No no no no) No no, it ain't like that [Verse 2] Well, I sacrificed all I had To stick by you when times were bad Then you walked away with your head up high And left me standing there to cry [Pre-Chorus] Told me I was just one of your stepping stones And now that you find yourself alone (Alone) You need my affection (Alone) The arms that gave you protection [Chorus] Now you're sneaking around my door (Sneaking 'round, sneaking 'round) Like an alleycat Well, uh-uh It ain't like that (No no no no) Uh-uh, it ain't like that (No no no) [Bridge] (Ain't it funny?) Funny how the things you do (Ain't it true?) Find a way of gettin' back to you Said you didn't (Didn't) Need me, no honey (Need me, no honey) But ooh, baby, look at you now [Verse 3] Now you must live a life that you chose Sorry baby, but that's how it goes [Pre-Chorus] I couldn't make you see our love was The greatest gift of all Without love to hold you up You're bound to fall (You'll fall) Into emptiness (You'll fall) A world where's (You'll fall) No tenderness (You'll fall) [Chorus] Now you say you found out (You found out, you found out) Just where it's at But, uh-uh It ain't like that (No no no no) No baby, it ain't like that (No no no) Can't be, can't be like that (No no no no) Uh-uh, it ain't like that No no, baby (No no no) It ain't like that (No no no no) Can't be, can't be like that (It ain't like that) No baby (No no no) It ain't like that
