Lyrics:
Ooh, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
No, no, ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing

Oh honey, I got your picture hangin' on the wall
But it can't see or come to me when I call your name
I realize it's just a picture in a frame

Ooh, I read your letter, you're not near
They don't move me, they don't groove me like when I hear
Your sweet voice whispering in my ear

Don'cha know, ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing

I played my game, a fantasy
I pretend, but I know in reality
I need the shelter of your arms to comfort me
No other sound is quite the same as your name
No touch can do half as much to make me feel better
So, let's stay together

I got some memories
Look back on, though they help me
When you're gone, I'm well aware
Nothin' can take the place of your being there
Oh, so glad we got the real thing, baby
So glad we got the real thing

Oh, Marvin, so good, ain't nothing like the real thing, baby, so good
Ain't nothing like the real thing
Talk to me, ain't nothing like the real thing, baby, oh I'm so glad
Ain't nothing like the real thing
