[Intro: Chauncey "Black" Hannibal]
Can you make me a, make me a, make me a happy home?
Can you make me, baby?
Oh yeah

[Verse 1: Chauncey "Black" Hannibal]
You say you want diamonds
You say you want pearls
Big car, big house, you wanna be served
Tell me, lady
Just what can you give
Cause it's not just material things, baby
For which i live

[Pre-Chorus: Chauncey "Black" Hannibal]
Will you cook?
Will you clean?
Are you willing to work?
Capture a dream?
But above all
I wanna know, yeah
Baby, can you make me a happy home?

[Chorus: Blackstreet & (Chauncey "Black" Hannibal)]
Make me a happy home (That's what I want)
I can can come running to (That's what I need, baby)
Make me a happy home
I can come running to (I can come running to)
Make me a happy home
I can come running to (Can you do that for me, baby?)
Make me a happy home (Ah yeah)
I can come running to
[Verse 2: Chauncey "Black" Hannibal]
You want me faithful
You want my time
You want all my good lovin', baby
And keep myself fine
But girl, will you love me
Through thick and through thin?
There's no doubt we can make it, baby
If you're willing to bend

[Pre-Chorus: Chauncey "Black" Hannibal]
Will you cook?
Will you clean?
Are you willing to work?
Capture a dream?
But above all
I wanna know, yeah
Baby, can you make me a happy home?

[Chorus: Blackstreet & (Chauncey "Black" Hannibal)]
Make me a happy home (That's what I want, baby)
I can can come running to (Every day, yeah)
Make me a happy home
I can come running to
(Oh, you see, 'cause I get lonely, lonely sometimes)
Make me a happy home (Ooh, ooh)
I can come running to (Oh)
Make me a happy home (I can...)
I can come running to
[Bridge: Chauncey "Black" Hannibal]
Teddy, won't you play the music for me? Oh-oh
Play it, Teddy
Keep on playing it for her
Let her know, let her know how you feel, ah yeah
Come on, come on, come on
Listen

[Verse 3: Chauncey "Black" Hannibal]
Now, I don't wanna fuss
And I don't wanna fight you, baby
Let's just do whatever has to be done
'Cause life isn't easy, baby
And nothing is free
Just stick with me, baby
You're all I need, oh

[Chorus: Blackstreet & (Chauncey "Black" Hannibal)]
Make me a happy home (That's what I want)
I can can come running to (That's what I need)
Make me a happy home (Home, oh)
I can come running to (I can come running to)
Make me a happy home
I can come running to (Oh, oh, oh)
Make me a happy home (I'm hoarse right now, but that's alright)
I can come running to
Make me a happy home (Can you do that for me, baby?)
I can can come running to (Home, yeah)
Make me a happy home (I can...)
I can come running to (Please)
Make me a happy home (In the midnight hour, baby)
I can come running to (Oh, all I wanna do is see your smiling face...)
Make me a happy home (...next to me, next to me)
I can come running to
