Embed: Why don't you use your imagination
(Oh no, oh no)
Nations go to war over women like you
It's just a form of appreciation"

"Come on over here, lay your clothes on the chair
Now let the lace fall across your shoulder
(Oh no, oh no)
Standing in the half-light you're almost like her
So take it slow like your daddy told ya"

Strut, pout, put it out
That's what you want from women
Come on, baby, whatcha takin' me for
Strut, pout, cut it out
All takin' and no givin'
Watch me baby, while I walk out the door

I said, "Honey, I don't like this game
You make me feel like a girl for hire
(Oh no, oh no)
All this fascination with leather and lace
Is just the smoke from another fire"

He said, "Honey, don't stop a speeding train
Before it reaches it destination
(Oh no, oh no)
Lie down here beside me, oh, have some fun too
Don't turn away from your true vocation

Strut, pout, put it out
That's what you want from women
Come on, baby, whatcha takin' me for
Strut, pout, cut it out
All takin' and no givin'
Watch me baby, while I walk out the door

I won't be your baby doll
Be your baby doll
I won't be your baby doll
Be your baby doll

Strut, pout, put it out
That's what you want from women
Come on, baby, whatcha takin' me for
Strut, pout, cut it out
All takin' and no givin'
Watch me baby, while I walk out the door

Strut, pout, put it out
That's what you want from women
Come on, baby, whatcha takin' me for
Strut, pout, cut it out
All takin' and no givin'
Watch me baby, while I walk out the doorLyrics provided by TANCODEhttp://lyricsever.com/" readonly=""/>

Strut Lyrics

He said, "Baby what's wrong with you
Why don't you use your imagination
(Oh no, oh no)
Nations go to war over women like you
It's just a form of appreciation"

"Come on over here, lay your clothes on the chair
Now let the lace fall across your shoulder
(Oh no, oh no)
Standing in the half-light you're almost like her
So take it slow like your daddy told ya"

Strut, pout, put it out
That's what you want from women
Come on, baby, whatcha takin' me for
Strut, pout, cut it out
All takin' and no givin'
Watch me baby, while I walk out the door

I said, "Honey, I don't like this game
You make me feel like a girl for hire
(Oh no, oh no)
All this fascination with leather and lace
Is just the smoke from another fire"

He said, "Honey, don't stop a speeding train
Before it reaches it destination
(Oh no, oh no)
Lie down here beside me, oh, have some fun too
Don't turn away from your true vocation

Strut, pout, put it out
That's what you want from women
Come on, baby, whatcha takin' me for
Strut, pout, cut it out
All takin' and no givin'
Watch me baby, while I walk out the door

I won't be your baby doll
Be your baby doll
I won't be your baby doll
Be your baby doll

Strut, pout, put it out
That's what you want from women
Come on, baby, whatcha takin' me for
Strut, pout, cut it out
All takin' and no givin'
Watch me baby, while I walk out the door

Strut, pout, put it out
That's what you want from women
Come on, baby, whatcha takin' me for
Strut, pout, cut it out
All takin' and no givin'
Watch me baby, while I walk out the door
