The Makings of You - Curtis Mayfield

Written by：Curtis Mayfield/Riley Hampton/Gary Slabo

And a little sugar honey suckle lamb

A great expression of happiness

Boy you couldn't miss with a dozen roses

Such would astound you

The joy of children laughing around you

These are the makings of you

It is true the makings of you oh

The righteous way to go

Little one would know

Or believe if I told them so

You're second to none

The love of all mankind should reflect some sign

Of these words I'm trying to recite

They're close but not quite

Almost impossible to do

Reciting the makings of you

The righteous way to go

Little one would know

Or believe if I told them so

You're second to none

The love of all mankind should reflect some sign

Of these words I'm trying to recite

They're close but not quite

Almost impossible to do

Reciting the makings of you
