Chorus:
Whatever you want (whatever you want, babe)
It's alright with me (it's alright with me)
'Cause you've got that whip appeal
So work it on me
It's better than love
Sweet as can be
You've got that whip appeal
So whip it on me (baby)

@MrBlactye...I was driving in my car the other night and this song came on & realized what a amazing songwriter Babyface really is along with his "secret song" .."Nobody Knows it But me" by the Tony Rich Project which is another favorite.
