Testify (I Wonna) Lyrics By Johnnie Taylor

    let me tell you something about myself
    i’m not ashamed to stand up and testify
    i think every man oughta
    stand up and testify

    friend inquisitive friend
    i’m asking what’s come all over me
    i’ve changed i’ve been changed
    it’s so plain for everybody to see

    then something came over me
    it took me by surprise
    happiness is all around me
    you can even see it in my eyes
    yeah yeah yeah

    i just wanna testify
    what your love has done for me
    let me say i just wanna testify
    what your love has done for me
    yeah yeah yeah

    as for me i’m running now
    let me say i’m running now
    oh right now running away

    once i was a hard man
    in which a lonely heart did dwell
    your love sneak up on me
    and brought life to an empty shell

    i’ve heard so many times before
    that love can be so bad
    i just got to tell you that
    it’s the best love i ever had

    let me say i just wanna testify
    what your love has done for me
    oh i just wanna testify
    what your love has done for me

    luscious
    you sure been delicious to me
    baby can’t you see
    you sure been delicious to me

    somebody help me say it
    luscious sure been delicious
    sure been delicious
    luscious sure been delicious
    yeah yeah yeah yeah

    i’m not ashamed to
    stand up and testify
    and every every man oughta
    stand up and testify
    every woman oughta
    stand up and testify

    just a little while ago
    my life was so incomplete
    i forgot forgot oh lord
    i look up at my feet

    let me say
    i just got to testify
    what your love has done for me
    i just got to testify
    what your love has done for me
