Talk To Her Lyrics - Voyage To India - India Arie

When you talk to her talk to her 

Like you want somebody to talk to you mama 

Don't get smart with her have a heart to heart with her 

Just like you would with your daughter 

Cause everything you do or say 

You gotta live with it everyday 

She's somebody's baby 

She's somebody's sista 

She's somebody's mama 

Now when you got to her speak truthfully 

Be honest as you can be, from your heart 

You're in a situation, where ya losing patience 

Take some time and look her in the eye 

When you just can't find the words you want 

And it's hard to reach the point 

Where you both can understand 

Don't just tell the truth 

Tell the whole truth 

It'll make a better man outta you

When you talk to her, talk to her 

Like you want somebody to talk to your mama 

Don't get smart with her have a heart to heart 

With her just like you would with your daughter 

Cause everything you do or say 

You gotta live with it everyday 

She's somebody's baby 

She's somebody's sista 

She's somebody's mama 

It doesn't matter if she's wearin 

A mini skirt or a business suit 

Whether she's 25 or 99 

Treat her the way your mama taught you to 

She could be the Queen of Sheba 

She could be a school teacher 

Home maker or a lawyer 

I think it's good for your Karma 

Life when...

When you talk to her, talk to her 

Like you want somebody to talk to your mama 

Don't get smart with her have a heart to heart 

With her just like you would with your daughter 

Cause everything you do or say 

You gotta live with it everyday 

She's somebody's baby 

She's somebody's sista 

She's somebody's mama 

Now let's keep it real 

Nothing in this world could ever exist 

Without it's opposite 

There has to be a sun and moon 

A man and a woman 

And that's just the way it is 

Humanity's lop sided 

And everyone's fightin' 

How do we restore the peace 

Mother earth is hurtin' 

Cause everyone is searchin' 

For the feminine energy 

When you talk to her talk to her 

Like you want somebody else to talk to your mama (Watch your mouth, yeah yeah) 

Don't get smart with her have a heart to heart 

With her just like you would with your daughter 

Cause everything you do or say 

You gotta live with it everyday 

She's somebody's baby 

She's somebody's sista 

She's somebody's mama 

When you talk to her talk to her 

Like you want somebody to talk to your mama 

Just like you fight for your sister 

If you knew that somebody dissed her 

How you gonna care for your daughter 

Turn around and talk bad about her mama 

Same way you listen to your auntie 

Never interupt while she speaks 

Make your words sweet like candy 

As if you were talking to your granny yeah 

If you really loved then (say so) 

If you really needed then (say so) 

Love the way she thinks (say so) 

You love the way she speaks (say so) 

When you need some good conversation (say so) 

Say so (say so) 

If you want her in your life (say so) 

You want her to be your wife (say so) 

Tell her she's your best friend (say so) (alright) 

You'll be there to the end (alright)(say so) 

If you're thinking about leaving (say so) 

If you wonder where she's going (say so) 

If you need to breathe with her (say so) 

You just want to be with her (say so) 

If you love her hair (say so) 

If you wanted her (say so) 

Tell me if you really wanted her (say so) 

You wanna slap her down (say so) 

Say so... 

(You better not hit no woman, you done bumped yo' head) 

If you feel like loving (say so) 

If you wanna feel the hugging (say so)
