It takes L and a O and a V and a E

It takes you, it takes me, together

Oh, let's love, we only got a day

Oh, let's love to pass the time away

I've only known you for a moment

Oh, but I love you desperately, girl

If it wasn't for the things that people say, child

You would be making love to me, alright

It takes L and a O and a V and a E

It takes you, it takes me, together

Oh, let's love, we only got a day

I said, we only got one day

Oh, let's love to pass the time away

They say that I'm mean and I'm evil, oh, girl

Oh, but how else can a starving man be?

If you wouldn't listen to what they say behind my back, child

You would be making love to me, alright

It takes L and a O and a V and a E

It takes you, it takes me, together

Oh, let's love, we only got a day

Well, well, well, well, let's fall in love, I said we only got one day

Oh, let's love to pass the time away

Let's pass the time away, alright?

Love on me and let me love on you, understand me

That's done, not your thing to do

If you wouldn't listen to what they say behind my back, girl

You would be making love to me, allright

Birds do it, bees do it

Even you and me can do it

There's really nothing to it and you're my bee

Oh, let's love, we only got a day

Well, well, well, let's fall in love, I said we only got one day

Oh, let's love

I said, we only got one day

To pass the time away

Yes

Ooh, ooh

You ready?

I'm ready

Let's go

Let's fall in love

I said, we only got one day

You know, we only got one day

We only making love to pass the time away, alright

'Cause birds do it, bees do it

Even you and me can do it

There's really nothing to it and you're my bee

Oh, let's love, we only got a day

Oh, let's love to pass the time away
