Marvin Gaye — You Can Leave But Its Going to Cost You Alternate Version

I remember like it was yesterday We were over Gwen's And we was trying one more time to make amends Oh yes we was Suddenly it occured to me it did not matter Whether I was mad at her Or she was mad at me Naw, babe Understanding my condition I must surely be a wishing And a hoping to be free Some say, you can leave, but it's going to cost you She said, yeah, you can leave, but it's going to cost you Yeah, she said, you can leave, but it's gonna cost you dearly, oh You can leave, but it's going to cost you, hah, dearly Sometimes your eyes was red as fire Intoxicated Sometimes your spirit was moving on me It wanted to fight me I had to fight to defend my life I didn't mind it You see, I find it A bit stimulating That after fighting We're making love Ooh baby, ooh baby, ooh baby Cause after all, you was my wife Hey, can you still boogie Boogie down the road sometime Hey, you can leave, but it's going to cost you She said, you can leave, but it's going to cost you You were trying to put me down She said, you can leave, but it's going to cost you I used to sing this song, I'm dancin' on She said, you can leave, but it's going to cost you Mystery man, what's going down That young girl is going to cost you If you want happiness, you got to pay Oooh baby, used to be the apple of my eye How come you loved me, baby? How come you love You used to be my heart's desire My heart's desire, yeah I'm gone, get used to it, baby I'm gone, get used to it, baby I'm gone, get used to it, baby I'm gone, get used to it, baby I'm gone, get used to it, baby I'm gone, get used to it I'm gone, get used to it, baby I'm gone, get used to it You tried to have them shackle me (Power, power, power) Bring me in Tell me what for So to satisfy you baby You have won the battle Oh but Daddy's gonna win the war Her lawyers worked so hard Tryin'a take my riches Rich things, too Trying to sell my home Tried to take my life Not my child too I don't care Tryina upset my woman Examinin' my soul But I was strong, baby Stood my ground and prayed Asked the Lord to help Wish he was in a position To upset the judge You can leave, but it's going to cost you You can leave, but it's going to cost you You can leave, but it's going to cost you You can leave, but it's going to cost you You use to say that I was a gorgeous hunk of man That didn't help me baby Ah, when you was on the stand You can't have happiness Until you pay me And make me happy too, baby You can leave, but it's going to cost you You can't have peace of mind till I get mine You can leave but it's going to cost you, mommy You can't have no jewelry Think about them first You can leave but it's going to cost you, mommy
