    Default Late 80s R&B song. HELP

    There was a song that went, "First it was Mary, quite contrary, thought in her garden I could truly find a woman, then came Suzie, such a fluzy" And the Chorus went. "Should've been you, with me baby, didn't need to love nobody else, didn't need nobody else." Can anyone help me. It's not Teddy Pendergrass for sure. It was more upbeat.

    Long shot, but maybe RUN DMC "Mary Mary"

    "Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
    "Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN

    [Run]
    Had a fly girl Flo, called her honey
    Next thing she spent up all my money
    ?? debt, you and your girl's dizzy
    Stopped movin crack but you're still gettin pissy
    You could call me everyday God sent
    like you was Lois Lane and I was Clark Kent
    I spend and I spend and you spent and you spent
    Now my house with a mouse is a roach with a tent

    "Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
    "Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN

    [D.M.C.]
    Mary Mary Mary you cold thumb suckin
    Lookin for you, but you keep duckin
    I wanna find you, I gotta tell you somethin
    So just be quiet and don't say NUTTIN
    Mary Mary Mary why you out there stuntin?
    Supposed to be with me, but not you're FRONTIN
    We started out new, you used to be true
    Now you're buggin, what's wrong with you?

    "Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
    "Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN

    [Run]
    Now..
    This girl Mary I knew so well
    I met her on the road in a fly hotel
    High on the heels and never failed
    (Clubs and the pubs is where she dwelled)
    Story about Mary was well to tell
    She seemed to scheme for a dream to sell
    She spent a night locked in a cell
    I knew Mary well cause she +Raising Hell+

    "Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
    "Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN

    [D.M.C.]
    It's not Mary who was quite - contrary
    Talkin bout Mary who was always in a - hurry
    The things she needed were necessary
    She did not need, a busted cherry
    True and blue just like a blueberry
    Ask if she's crazy and I'll say very
    Livin in a house that's out on the prairie
    I worry about Mary cause Mary is scary!

    "Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
    "Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN

    "Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
    "Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN

    "Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUG
    Oh Stewardess..........I speak jive.

    No that's not it. It wasn't a rap but kind of like "Return of the Mack " style by Mark Morrison but a little faster beat. Thanks for the try though.

    It might have even been very early 90s.

    Well, tbelle77 already answered you back in 2008. So you could have saved at least 2 or even 3 years of searching
