CECE PENISTON
"Virtue"
(Felipe Delgado / Rodney Jackson)

So you sayin' that you're down with me
So let's check the degree
Is what I'm hearin' something new to me?
Just an impression on what you need
Carry yourself in a gentleman way
So far you're good to go
And now I find myself at your place

[Chorus:]
So you're sayin' that you're down with me
Respect my virtue
So you wanna spend some time with me
Respect my virtue
I'm not the one to teach, 'cause baby, I please
So take some time to get to know me better
And if you wanna be down with me, respect my virtue
Respect my virtue

You say you're living large, so am I
But I don't see no signs

Mack daddies come a dime-a-dozen buggin'
And so they try to find
The combination to my heart and mind
The stimulation kind
The stimulation is easy to do
After, where do I stand with you?
(I never knew ya!)
'Cause "C" ain't goin' out like that guaranteed
Not before me need, you see
A new jack move in a woman's plan,
If you really want a woman,
Find the time to be a man

[Chorus]

I need a man, a man with backbone
You know what, baby?
If you wanted to spend some time with me,
You should have respected my virtue
You know what I'm sayin'
