Lyrics What He Has - Thelma Houston, Trick

What He Has

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…
