Grown Thangs Lyrics

What good is the money when lately we've been missin' each other?
'Cause we've got work and kids, you know how it goes
Monday through Friday, nine to five
We spend most of the time chasin' that dough

But not tonight, we're gonna both get fly
Call your momma, tell her come over so we can have quality time
'Cause it's been too long since I held you in my arms
I can't wait no more, I'm ready to ooh

You make me wanna do thangs, do thangs
Them grown thangs, do thangs with you, ooh
Tonight we gon' forget our worries
Put the kids to bed, I'm goin' out instead with you, ooh

Girl, put that celly down, don't even peek at your pager now
Just chill, relax, the kids will be cool
Grab two more Cosmos, we ain't thinkin' about tomorrow
We're in a club full of people but it feels just like me and you

My baby's looking hot tonight, catching everybody's eye
Look at them starin', but I ain't carin' 'cause I know you're mine
We should do this more often, got a fella feelin' kinda flossy
I can't wait to make your body go, ooh

You make me wanna do thangs, do thangs
Them grown thangs, do thangs with you, ooh
Tonight we gon' forget our worries
Put the kids to bed, I'm goin' out instead with you, ooh

You make me wanna do thangs, do thangs
Them grown thangs, do thangs with you, ooh
Tonight we gon' forget our worries
Put the kids to bed, I'm goin' out instead with you, ooh

You know how it goes
Keep chasin' that dough

I'll ring the bell like I used to do, hold the door for you, let you through
Take your hand and talk to you, make you know you're my star
I'm gonna woo ya, yeah yeah, say pretty words to ya, yeah yeah
Send chills right through ya, ooh yeah, and remind you how loved you are

Do thangs, do thangs
Them grown thangs, do thangs with you, ooh
Tonight we gon' forget our worries
Put the kids to bed, I'm goin' out instead with you, ooh

You make me wanna do thangs, do thangs
Them grown thangs, do thangs with you, ooh
Tonight we gon' forget our worries
Put the kids to bed, I'm goin' out instead with you, ooh

You make me wanna do thangs, do thangs
Them grown thangs, do thangs with you, ooh
Tonight we gon' forget our worries
Put the kids to bed, I'm goin' out instead with you, ooh

Do thangs, do thangs
Do thangs, do thangs

Luther Ronzoni Vandross (April 20, 1951 - July 1, 2005), New York City, NY, was an American Soul and RnB singer whose career spanned four decades.

In the 70s, he worked as a backing singer Chic and for David Bowie (on the Young Americans album). He later found success as a solo artist with Superstar and A House is not a Home.

In the 80s, Vandross was a vocalist on early Change singles (Searching), whilst continuing his solo career with such releases as "Never too Much", "Power Of Love/Love Power", "If only for One Night", "Here and Now".

In the 90s, he was more famous for duets with Janet Jackson and Mariah Carey (amongst others), than for his solo work.

It was an ongoing battle with his weight that may have ultimately proved his undoing. He suffered a stroke in 2003, from which he never really recovered, and died in 2005.

During his career, he sold 25 million albums and won eight Grammy awards including Best Male R&B Vocal Performance four times. He won four Grammy awards in 2004, including the Grammy Award for Song of the Year for the track "Dance With My Father," co-written with Richard Marx.
