James Brown
Things We Do For Love (Remix)
[Intro: Jay-Z]
Uh huh
How we do
Uh huh, uh huh
Big Lou
Ha ha, Betty Def
Yeah, Eddie F
Uh huh, uh huh
Mo Brown, Motown
Jay-Z, Roc-A-Fella, y'all
That's right
Just the things we do
Ha ha

[Chorus]
Diamond rings, pearls and things
Trips in December
Things we do for love
Fancy cars, the credit cards
Do you remember
Things we do for love

[Verse 1]
Romantic places in my mind
Hoping someday I would find
The perfect one
And I could share
And then that day you walked inside
And no longer could I hide my love
I had to take you there
[Pre-Chorus]
Sailing on a cruise at night
(Sailing on a cruise at night)
Gaze into the ocean under moonlight
(Yeah, yeah)
Taking you to paradise
(To paradise, baby...yeah yeah)

[Chorus]
Diamond rings, pearls and things
Trips in December
Things we do for love
Fancy cars, the credit cards
Do you remember
Things we do for love

[Verse 2]
I showered you with gifts of love
But it was never enough
To bring you closer to me
Trickin' money was no thing
The simple pleasure that you bring my way
Takes me back to the day we were

[Pre-Chorus]
Sailing on a cruise at night
(Sailing on a cruise at night)
Gaze into the ocean under moonlight
(Under moonlight)
Taking you to paradise
(Taking you to paradise, yeah yeah)
[Chorus]
Diamond rings, pearls and things
Trips in December
Things we do for love
Fancy cars, the credit cards
Do you remember
Things we do for love

[Jay-Z]
Keep shorty dipped like Chrome Dada's
We ain't home, it's trips to Nevada
Push your chips on six, I roll tré twice
People way in the back hoping I crap
And they don't even play dice
Me and old girl against the whole world
Under the lights ice looking blue, mother of pearls
Just the things we do, baby; diamond your wrist
One of the many reasons that I rhyme like this
Spent plenty, push a 3-20—drop
Gold chains, ice around the penny—hot
Envious if any—stop
Baby, copped the Benz 3 E, backed it out the lot
Made her whole crew sick, jet around the way
Playing Ho Brown new shit, Motown
Three G's, see, he's Bacardi
Jay-Z, baby, see you at the platinum party
Ha ha
[Chorus 4X]
Diamond rings, pearls and things
Trips in December
Things we do for love
Fancy cars, the credit cards
Do you remember
Things we do for love
