If That's What It Takes is the debut studio album by American singer-songwriter Michael McDonald. The album was released in August 1982

Oh, when I say that you're the only one I'm not tryin' to fool you, baby Well, I'm only here to get the job done 'cause you're so used to getting what you want Well, look no further, baby . If That's What It Takes" lyrics provided for educational purposes and personal use only.

How do i please you How do i please you How do i please you How do i please you Girl, in your one way heart In your one track mind How do i please you How do i please you. Oh, when i say that you're the only one I'm not tryin' to fool you, baby Well, i'm only here to get the job done 'cause you're so used to getting what you want Well, look no further, baby

I pray Mike writes, sings, and produces another 2017 album. Your songs are love songs, ballets, R&B.
