It Doesn't Matter How I Say It (It's What I Say That Matters)
Composer(s): Drake Hollon
Performer(s): Florence Ballard



If I were a candy dish, I’d wanna be the one you keep your sweets in, my sweet man 
And if I were a lamp, I’d wanna be the one you turned on every night, ooh ooh baby 
And If I were a bank, I’d wanna hold all your deposits 
And If I were a rose, I might be growing in your garden 

Baby, this ain’t nothin’ new that I’m sayin’ to ya, no 
It’s just another way of tellin’ you that I love you 
Doesn’t matter how I say it (doesn’t matter how I say it), 
It’s what I say that matters ( it’s what I say that matters) 
And I love you, love you, love you boy, doesn’t matter how I say it 
I love you, love you, love you boy, doesn’t matter how I say it 

If I were a pillow babe, I’d wanna be the one you rest your head on, and dream on 
And If I were a mountain reachin' high, I’d wanna be the one you climb, ooh ooh baby 
And if I were a pipe, I’d wanna be the one you're smokin’ 
And if I were a place, I’d wanna be the place your goin’ 

Baby, this ain’t nothin’ new that I’m sayin’ to ya, no 
It’s just another way of tellin’ you that I love you 
Doesn’t matter how I say it (doesn’t matter how I say it), 
It’s what I say that matters ( it’s what I say that matters) 
And I love you, love you, love you boy, doesn’t matter how I say it 
I love you, love you, love you boy, doesn’t matter how I say it 

I love you, oh 

(repeat): 
I love you, love you, love you boy, doesn’t matter how I say it
