Sweet song...**SWEET THING**

Before Nina came out with her own SWEET version there was the jazzier and in my opinion, more soulful (for lack of a better and appropriate term) version by Rufus and Chaka Khan. This was featured in movies Love and Basketball (I've seen this a long time ago but never had a recollection of the song) and Deliver us From Eva with LL Cool J. Gosh, u should see LL Cool J sing this song in his truck with partner Gabriel Union. Just 2 things, you'll either love or loathe him! ;)
Sweet Thing
I will love you anyway
Even if you cannot stay
I think you are the one for me
Here is where you ought to be
I just want to satisfy ya
Though you're not mine I can't deny ya
Don't you hear me talking baby?
Love me now or I'll go crazy
[CHORUS:]
Oh sweet thing
Don't you know you're my everything?
Oh sweet thing Don't you know you're my everything?
Yes, you areI wish you were my lover
But ya act so undercover
To love you child my who life long
Be it right, or be it wrong
I'm only what you make me, baby
Don't walk away, don't be so shady
Don't want your mind, don't want your money
These words I say, they may sound funny, but...
[CHORUS]
You are my heat
You are my fire
You make me weak with strong desire
To love you child my whole life long
Be it right, or be it wrong
I just want to satisfy ya
Though you're not mine I can't deny ya
Don't you hear me talking baby?
Love me now or I'll go crazy
[VAMP:]
You're my heat, you are my fire
You're not mine, I can't deny ya
Don't you hear me talking, baby?
Love me now, or I'll go crazy
