Giving You The Benefit (Extended Club Mix)Pebbles

[Intro]
I can be a trip but I choose not to
Deep inside of you, I think there's still good in you, boy
Don't give me no reason not to trust you
Just take the benefit, don't give me no lip
And I'll be sweet to you

Trying to understand you right, boy
So you need some time to work it out, work it
Well, there's really no need to fuss and fight, no
All I want is for you to try and work it out

[Verse 1]
Lately, I've been trying to figure out your mind
And why you keep dissin' me
Poor little me
And why you have a change of heart and turn it all around
And then try to put it on me
Poor little me

[Pre-Chorus]
But don't you know
I could be a trip, I could make things hard
But baby, I believe that you still got a heart
That's why I
Try to stop myself before I start
'Cause I could make it tough, I could make it rough
But I won't

[Chorus]
Well, I'll be giving you the benefit
Of the doubt
Givin' you a minute to
Try to work it on out
I'll be givin' you the benefit
Of the doubt
And I'm giving you a minute to
Try to work it on out
Baby, work it on, work it on out
(Work, work, work)
Baby, work it on, work it on out
(Work, work, work)

[Verse 2]
Baby, how could you be hangin' out on the town
And claim that you're missin' me
Poor little me
When you knew all the time that you could've been with your homegirl
Lovin' and a kissin' on me
Sweet little me

[Pre-Chorus]
But don't you know
If you wanna be a man, you gotta work real hard
If you wanna make me feel I'm like your number one and
Nothin' in the world should make us part
'Cause we can make it work
If you take away the hurt
From the heart

[Chorus]
Well, I'll be giving you the benefit
Of the doubt
Givin' you a minute to
Try to work it on out
I'll be givin' you the benefit
Of the doubt
And I'm giving you a minute to
Try to work it on out
Baby, work it on, work it on out
(Work, work, work)
Work it, baby
(Work, work, work)
Try to work it on, work it on, work it on, work it on out
(Work, work, work)
Work it, baby
(Work, work, work)
Keep tryin' to work it on out

[Bridge]
I could be a trip but I choose not to
Deep inside of you
I think there's still good in you, boy
Don't give me no reason not to trust you
Just take the benefit, don't give me no lip
And I'll be sweet to you

Trying to understand you right, boy
So you need some time to work it out, work it
Well, there's really no need to fuss and fight, no
All I want is for you to try and work it out

I'll be giving you a minute or two
To try and work it out
I wanna work it, baby
I'll be giving you a minute or two
To try and work it out
But don't you take too long, baby

[Chorus]
I'll be giving you the benefit
Of the doubt
And I'm giving you a minute to
Try to work it on out
I'll be giving you the benefit
Of the doubt
I'm giving you a minute to
Try to work it on out
I'll be giving you the benefit
Of the doubt
And I'm giving you a minute to
Try to work it on out

I'll be giving you the benefit
Of the doubt
And I'm giving you a minute to
Try to work it on out

Baby, work it on, work it on out
(Work, work, work)
Work it, baby
(Work, work, work)
Try to work it on, work it on, work it on, work it on out
(Work, work, work)
Work it, baby
(Work, work, work)
Keep tryin' to work it on out

[Bridge]
I wanna give it, I'm giving you the benefit
I wanna give it, I'm giving you the benefit
I wanna give it, I'm giving you the benefit
I wanna give it, I'm giving you the benefit
I wanna give it, I'm giving you the benefit
I wanna give it, I'm giving you the benefit
I wanna give it, I'm giving you the benefit
I wanna give it, I'm giving you the benefit

I'll be giving you a minute or two
To try and work it out
I wanna work it, baby
I'll be giving you a minute or two
To try and work it out
But don't you take too long, baby

[Chorus]
I'll be giving you the benefit
Of the doubt
And I'm giving you a minute to
Try to work it on out
I'll be giving you the benefit
Of the doubt
I'm giving you a minute to
Try to work it on out
