The Argument Songtext
von Ike & Tina Turner

Tina?
Yes, Ikey?
Tell me what′s wrong with you?
There's nothing wrong with me.
Ha, I hope you knew that. But then why...?
Why what?
Why have you been so blue?
It′s been another one of those days I suppose.
Ha. Now I can tell when there is something that's on your mind, and if you tell me that is not, then I know you are lyin'. So tell me.
Tell you what?
Tell me what is on your mind.
I told you there was nothing on my mind, so I′ll sing it to you! Na, Ikey!
Uh-huh?
There′s nothing baby, on my mind.
That's right, baby, tell me it′s raining when the sun is shining.
I said Ikey!
Uh-huh?
There's nothing baby on my mind!
Oh, I′ll believe anything baby!
I would lap around my mind, you bettah let it be! Because I'm getting pretty tired, I′ll be heck of a B. Na, Ikey... there's nothing baby on my mind.


What was on her mind.
Maybe the girls will tell, what's on her mind girls?

Well, I didn′t really lie?
You know what I should do?
A-what?
Ha, I should hit you up against your head!
Huh-HAO, but if you had hit me, you would wish you were dead, because they told you!
Oh really?
They told you what was on my mind!
What was on her mind.
