What He Has - Thelma Houston, Trick

I call him Felix the Cat

'Cause when he reaches in his bag of tricks, yeah (come on, ha!)

I’m feelin' good in a flash

'Cause there ain’t nothin' that he can’t fix, oh no

There’s a lot of talk (uh-huh) about my fella (about my fella)

Let me tell you

He may not have a whole lotta money

He may not have one red cent

But what he has, I’m tellin' you honey

I wouldn’t trade it to be president — naw lawdy

He may not have a whole lotta friends

'Cause he works all day on the assembly line

But on what he has, I know I can depend

To keep me warm for the rest of my life

What he has (What he has — I got to have)

I can’t do without ('Cause what he has is for me, yeah)

What he has (What he has — I got to have)

Is precious love (His precious love is for me)

Sometimes the ones that you trust

Try to run your life and live it too, yes they will

They’ll say the one that you love

Isn’t doin' quite enough for you, I know

People like to talk (all the time) when they get jealous (hey, hey)

Let me tell you

He may not have a whole lotta money

He may not have one red cent

But what he has, I’m tellin' you honey

I wouldn’t trade it to be president — naw lawdy

He may not have a whole lotta friends

'Cause he works all day on the assembly line

But on what he has, I know I can depend

To keep me warm for the rest of my life

What he has (What he has — I got to have)

I can’t do without ('Cause what he has is for me, yeah)

What he has (What he has — I got to have)

Is precious love (His precious love is for me)

Trust is a must

All ventures are discussed

Just to insure our mutual interest

Our self-esteem makes me richer than anything

Her sweet love keeps me in the swing of things

Respect and never neglect her opinion

I’m the king and she’s the queen of my dominion

I wouldn’t give her up for all the gold in the world

'Cause she’s my priceless pearl

He may not have a whole lotta friends (here we go)

'Cause he works all day on the assembly line (work! come on, ha)

But on what he has, I know I can depend (uh!)

To keep me warm for the rest of my life

(What he has) I try and try each and every day

To let you know in a special way

(I can’t do without) That you’re my man, baby (uh! uh! here we go)

(What he has) I’ll love you and adore you, be there for you

Baby let me reassure you

(Is precious love) That I love you

Woo!

Hey-ey, yeah

Uh, uh!

This record is a message to those who are lovers

Especially to all of my sisters and brothers

To know that knowledge is king

And that money isn’t everything

And we should have respect for one another

Don’t sleep on your dreams

Though it’d seem, that remains to be seen

In the middle of a movie screen

Or between a king and a queen

Anything is possible, you know what I mean?

It doesn’t matter what people say

I know our love is here to stay, baby

Can’t take it away, no

Respect and trust are hard to find

Let’s leave our troubles far behind, darling

(Ooh) No no no no, no…

(Work it out like this) Woo-hoo!

No no, no no, no!!!

No no, no no, baby

I can’t do without, no no, no no, baby…
