[Verse 1: The Temptations, Melvin Franklin]
You asked me, do I love you
And you said you just have to know tonight
Oh yeah, I love you
And what you're thinking there sure is right
You mean you love her?
I love her
You mean you really, really, really, really love her?
Oh boy, you're right
You're positively absolutely right

[Verse 2: The Temptations, Melvin Franklin]
Will she believe you Will you abuse her?
Will you ever, ever, ever misuse her?
Oh no, it ain't right, it ain't right
Ah

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3: The Temptations, Melvin Franklin]
Because it's known, she's at home
Just sitting and waiting all alone
Hello operator, please
Give me true love seven-eight-three
You say true love seven-eight-three?
Oh boy, you're right
You're positively absolutely right
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4: The Temptations, Melvin Franklin]
Pick up the phone, she's at home
Just sitting and waiting all alone
Hello operator, please
Give me true love seven-eight-three
You say true love seven-eight-three?
Oh boy, you're right
You're positively absolutely right

[Outro: The Temptations, Melvin Franklin]
Did you say you love to hate her? (You're right)
Did you say you love to hate her? (Oh boy)
Did you say you love to hate her? (You're right)
Did you say you love to hate her? (You're right)
Did you say you love to hate her? (Oh boy)
