[Chorus]
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right-right-right
[Verse 1]
Girl pleading, you think you're strong
Nothing gives to you
You hold your own, a heart of stone
You're so protective that you're all alone
You're a victim of love-istration
All you need is some stronger meditation
[Chorus]
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right-right-right
[Verse 2]
You're too mean, let your guard down
And I'll get to the heart of the problem
You need someone to put out that fire
Hold you closely and feed your desire
You're disenchanted 'cause you ain't been satisfied
I know what you're missing, you better hope you're not [?]
[Chorus x2]
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right-right-right
[Break]
Yo, girl, slow your pace
It's written all over your face
You ain't been loved right
Nah, not by B. Brown
So I just got one thing to say
And this is it
Listen
Honey, girl
[Chorus x4]
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right-right-right
[Break]
[Chorus x3]
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right-right-right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right-right-right
[Verse 1]
Girl pleading, you think you're strong
Nothing gives to you
You hold your own, a heart of stone
You're so protective that you're all alone
You're a victim of love-istration
All you need is some stronger meditation
[Chorus]
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right-right-right
[Verse 2]
You're too mean, let your guard down
And I'll get to the heart of the problem
You need someone to put out that fire
Hold you closely and feed your desire
You're disenchanted 'cause you ain't been satisfied
I know what you're missing, you better hope you're not [?]
[Chorus x2]
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right-right-right
[Break]
Yo, girl, slow your pace
It's written all over your face
You ain't been loved right
Nah, not by B. Brown
So I just got one thing to say
And this is it
Listen
Honey, girl
[Chorus x4]
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right-right-right
[Break]
[Chorus x3]
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right
You ain't been loved right-right-right
