Buy from iTunes: Prince & The New Power Generation - Diamonds and Pearls - Willing and Able

Said I'm willin' and I'm able
I'm ready 2 place my cards on the table
I been holdin' back this feeling 4 far 2 long
And now that I'm willin'
It's a fact – it's truly mighty strong
Like a child lost in the wilderness
Till I reach my destination, I won't rest
Cuz I'm willin' (Willin') and I'm able (Able)
I'm ready 2 place my cards on the table (Table)
There's some kings in my deck and a queen or 2
So U know there ain't nothin', nothin' that I wouldn't do
(Nothin' that I won't do)
It 'twas a long time comin', but now that it's here
All the non-believers better fear me
Cuz I'm willin (Willin' and able) and I'm able
I got a good and plenty cards 2 place on the table (Table)
I been holdin' back this feeling 4 far 2 long
(Holdin' back this feeling 4 far 2 long)
And now that I'm willin' (This feeling)
This feeling is truly mighty strong (Truly)
(I... I… I… I'm willin') (Willin')
Uh, able (Able)
My vision is all clear, I'm feelin' kinda stable
U know I am {x2}
I'm ready 2 whisper (Whisper - what cha say?)
Ready 2 shout, yeah (Shout - now what cha say?)
I'm ready 2 scream from the highest mountain top
(Scream - now what cha say? What cha say?)
(Now what cha say? What cha say?)
Oh Lord, I'm willin', willin', able (Willin', able)
I wanna dance and sing, somebody watch me do my thing
Oh! {repeat}
(Willin') (Able) (Willin' and able) {x2}
I wanna dance and sing, somebody watch me do my thing
(Dance and sing, let me watch U do your thang)
(Bring it to me)
Let me take a bite 2 see if U're ripe
I'm kinda thinkin' about takin' a whole chunk
A piece of your love 2night
Well hello, M.C. T on a mello
Swing low 2 the tempo as I flow on a roll
Here we go, willing and able start the show right
With that type of hype
I lay my cards on the table 2night
Don't take me light
My flow hits U just like a lead pipe
While I'm clockin'
U just ain't fussin' about the boots I'm knockin'
It ain't like that
Besides, I keep the Jimmy so get off my back
In fact U lack the knack
Step back before I show U how a fool acts, baby
Yeah
