New Kids On The Block - Hangin' Tough Album Lyrics

You Got It (The Right Stuff)

The right stuff
The right stuff
First time was a great time
Second time was a blast
Third time I fell in love
Now I hope it lasts
I can see it in your walk
Tell 'em when you talk
See it in everything you do
Even in your thoughts

You got the right stuff, baby
Love the way you turn me on
You got the right stuff, baby
You're the reason why I sing this song
All that I needed was you
Oh girl, you're so right
Said all that I wanted was you
You made all my dreams come true

[Chorus: ]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
The right stuff
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
The right stuff

Your first kiss was a sweet kiss
Second kiss had a twist
Third and your fourth kiss
I don't want to miss
I can see it in your walk
Tell 'em when you talk
See it in everything you do
Even in your thoughts

You got the right stuff, baby
Love the way you turn me on
You got the right stuff, baby
You're the reason why I sing this song
All that I needed was you
Oh girl, you're so right
Said all that I wanted was you
You made all.... every one of my dreams come true

[Repeat Chorus ]

The right stuff, girl, yeah baby, yeah
You know you got the right stuff
And girl, yeah, baby
You know, you know you got it, girl

In my life, you're so right
You made all.... you know what you did

[Repeat chorus and fade]

Do you have to leave?
Please don't go girl
I just can't live without you

I'll Be Loving You (Forever)

Yeah
I'm not that kind of guy who can take a broken heart
So don't ever leave
I don't want to see us part
The very thought of losing you means
That everything
Would go down under

[Chorus: ]

I'll be loving you forever
Just as long as you want me to be
I'll be loving you forever
All this love's for you and me, yeah
(I'll be loving you)
I'll be
(I'll be loving you)
Loving you
(The things you do)
Yeah, it's forever
(I'll be loving you)
I'll be
(I'll be loving you)
Loving you, yeah

I count the blessings that keep our love new
There's one for me
And a million for you
There's just so much that I want to say
But when I look at you
All my thoughts get in the way

[Chorus ]

We've learned to fall to every turn by now
This love will last forever
I can see it all now

(I'll be loving you)
I'll be
(I'll be loving you)
Loving you
(The things you do)
Yeah, it's forever
(I'll be loving you)
I'll be
(I'll be loving you)
Loving only you, girl
Oh girl
I'll be loving only you
(I'll be loving you)
(I'll be loving you)
Be loving you girl

Cover Girl

I get up in the morning and I see your face, girl
You're looking so good, everything's in place
Don't you know I could never leave your side girl
Won't you stay here with me and be my bride?
Don't you know you're my kind, you're just what I like
Girl you're everything, don't you know you're alright
The only girl I've always needed for so long

[Chorus: ]

Oh, oh-oh, she's my cover girl
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, she's my cover girl
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh

When I look through the pages of a magazine
Still, your pretty face is the prettiest I've seen
Don't you know I only want to be with you
No other girl could make me feel the way you do
You're my everything

[Chorus twice ]

It's alright
Oh, yeah, it's out of sight
Let me say it's alright
Ah, yeah!

Don't you know I only want to be with you
No other girl could make me feel the way you do
You're my everything

[Chorus and fade]

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Listen up everybody if you wanna take a chance.

I Remember When

Days are gone but my love lives on in this space and time.
I remember playing the games, funny nicknames, and all the sunny days,
that shine so brightly.
I keep remembering when we started together as friends.
I keep remembering when we were together forever.

The promise we made still stays in my head like the melody.
I remember favorite songs we heard all night long in the candlelight
still shines so brightly.
I keep...

I bet you didn't know how much I loved you.
I bet you didn't know just how much I care.
Little girl, whenever I'm around you, all in love is fair, girl.
I keep...
[repeat & fade]

What'cha Gonna Do (About It)?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, baby.
Girl, you've done me wrong, now you're running back to me.
Thought you were my lady, girl, you drove me crazy,
now you want the world to see.
[Rap:] You must think I'm crazy, please, don't think I'm blind.
Don't wanna dig your line.
Even though I still love you, always thinking of you
[Rap:] You better believe I got my pride.
Sooner or later love is gonna get you - sooner or later.
Somehow I know I knew it would get you, love was gonna get you.
[Rap:] Girl, why you done like this, I know I still love you, check it out.
What'cha gonna do about it, girl, what'cha gonna do?
You know you done me wrong, I'm still in love with you.
What'cha gonna do about? I can't get you out of my mind.
Every time I see you this happens all the time.

Girl, you made me laugh, girl, you just don't make me cry.
Give me plenty of loving, kissing and a hugging, girl, and that I can't deny.
Sooner or ...
[Rap:] Listen, I know you still love me, I can see it all over your face,
so what's up?
What'cha gonna...

What'cha gonna do about it, girl, what'cha gonna do?
You know you done me wrong, I'm still in love with you.
What'cha gonna do about it, girl, I've got to know
'cause I'm still in love with you.
Girl, you are a star, make me wanna play my guitar.
What'cha gonna do about it? [repeat & fade]

My Favorite Girl

My favorite girl, oh, she's my favorite girl, don't you know,
my favorite girl, oh, she's my favorite girl.

You walked into my life, your love was so new,
and nothing will ever change my feelings for you,
well, you were so far away, now I am close to you, girl,
so let us run away, our heart that's waiting will stay.

My favorite...

There's so much I like in you I can't go on,
I wanted a girl like you I've looked so long,
girl, nothing will make us wrong, I know our love is too strong,
let's leave the rest behind, our dreams ask what we will find.

My favorite...
My favorite...
[Rap:] She's my favorite girl, the one I'm always thinking of, that one.
[Rap:] My favorite girl, the one I love.

My favorite... [repeat & fade ad lib]

Hold On

Hold on, girl, ooh, girl, hold on.
Girl, let's rock around the clock, we can dance and never stop.
Come on, girl, just hold on tight, I know you wanna rock tonight.
Through the night into the day we could chase our blues away,
so grab a hold, don't lose control, I really know you got the soul.
Hold on, girl, hold on, ooh, girl, hold on.

Hold on, girl, hold on, ooh, girl, hold on.
Girl, the feeling's in the air, don't you know, it's everywhere.
Everywhere around the block people dance until they just can't stop.
Through the night....

Hold on, girl, hold on, ooh, girl, hold on [repeat & fade]
