If you don't know me by now.

In September 11, 1972 eleven days before my 13th birthday, A.B.C. Records released a song, sung by

Harold Melvin and The Blue Notes. If you don't know me by now (You will never, never, never know me.)

“All the things, that we've been through, you should understand me, Like I understand you.

Now girl I know the difference Between right and wrong. I ain’t gonna do nothing, to break up our

happy home. Don't get so excited When I come home A little late at night cause we only act like children

When we argue fuss and fight If you don't know me by now You will never, never, never know me

We've all got our Own funny moods I've got mine, Woman you've got yours too Just trust in me like I

trust in you as long as we've been together It should be so easy to do Just get yourself together or we

might as well say goodbye What good is a love affair When you can't see eye to eye If you don't know

me by now You will never, never, never know me”
