Aww shucks. I'm a try to talk to you sugar. You break your back, and you break your legs, and you break your faith, trying to make these people know you in life. But somehow, they just don't want to try to. So you say to yourself, Is it something I said? Is it something I done? Is it the way I look? Is it the way my clothes come unfastened? And if that turns you on baby then you aint worth me anyway.
I love that quote, my friend has it on his profile...the one that says "You break your back, and you break your legs, and you break your faith, trying to make these people know you in life. But somehow, they just don't want to try to."
If we're all thinking of the same version, I've been looking for it too. I downloaded this version form Itunes because I couldn't find the older version, which I think might be on the "Patti" album from 1985. I don't think the album made it to CD, so I doubt if it's gone digital yet.
anytime!! Patti is my fav person, her voice, her personality, the way she has accepted me as a person even though I am not on her level in the world, and am a young white boy... yet she still takes me onto her stage everytime she sees me. anytime!
@MannarinoJoey I have played the hell out of that track MannarinoJoey. I'm really getting my 99 cents worth. In your honor I'm playing it now as I type this.
I love Whitney my goodness I do, but this woman right here is "Th Voice".

Could the version you're talking about be from the 1985 album "Patti"?
It's a studio album, but then the last cut is a live version of "If You Don't Know Me By Now."
