[Verse 1: Gladys Knight]
Ah, lookin' at the devil
Grinnin' at his gun, yeah
Fingers start shakin'
I begin to run, run, run
Bullets start chasin' (Yeah)
I begin to stop (Well, well, well, well)
We begin to wrestle (Uh-huh)
I was on the top

[Chorus: Gladys Knight & The Pips, Gladys Knight]
I wanna thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I wanna thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin (Well, well, well, well, well)

[Post-Chorus: Gladys Knight & The Pips]

[Verse 2: Gladys Knight & The Pips]
Stiff all in the collar (Mmm)
Fluffy in the face (Mmm, mmm, mmm, yeah)
Chit chat chatter tryin' (Say)
Stuffy in the place
I wanna thank you for the party
No, no, but I could never stay, uh-uh
Many things are on my mind
Words in the way
[Chorus: Gladys Knight & The Pips, Gladys Knight]
I wanna thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin
Well, well, hey, hey, I wanna thank you falettinme

[Bridge: Gladys Knight & The Pips]
Dance to the music (Keep on dancing)
All night long (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Everyday people (Beautiful people)
Sing a simple song
You take mama now, she's so happy
She starts to cry, yeah
Papa still singin' (Singin', singin', singin')
You can make it if you try (Well, well)

[Chorus: Gladys Knight & The Pips, Gladys Knight]
I wanna thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin
I, I, I, I, I wanna thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin
[Verse 3: Gladys Knight & The Pips]
Flaming eyes of people fear
Burning into you
Many men are missin' much
Hating what they do
Youth and truth are making love
Dig it for a starter
Dying young is hard to take
Selling out is harder (Ooh)

[Chorus: Gladys Knight & The Pips, Gladys Knight]
Oh, thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin
I, I, I, I wanna thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin
(Different strokes for different folks now)
Thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin
Thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin
