Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I've been really trying baby

Trying to hold back this feeling, for so long

And if you feel, like I feel baby

Then come on, oh, come on

[Verse 2]

Let's get it on

Ah, baby, let's get it on

Let's love baby

Let's get it on, sugar

Let's get it on

[Verse 3]

We're all sensitive people

With so much to give

Understand me sugar

Since we've got to be here

Let's live

I love you

[Verse 4]

There's nothing wrong with me, loving you, baby no no

And giving yourself to me can never be wrong

If the love is true, oh baby

[Verse 5]

Don't you know how sweet and wonderful life can be

I'm asking you baby to get it on with me

I ain't gonna worry

I ain't gonna push, won't push you baby

So come on, come on, come on, come on baby

Stop beating around the bush

[Verse 6]

Let's get it on

Let's get it on

You know what I'm talking about

Come on baby

[Verse 7]

Hey eh, let your love come out

If you believe in love, let's get it on

Oh, let's get it on, baby

This minute, oh yeah

Let's get it on

Please, let's get it on

[Verse 8]

I know you know what I've been dreaming of

Don't you baby

My whole body's wanting to feel love

I'm happy

I ain't gonna worry

No I ain't gonna push, I won't push you baby

Woo come on, come on, come on, come on darling

Stop beating around the bush

[Verse 9]

Oh gonna get it on

Right with you baby

I want to get it on

You don't have to worry that it's wrong

If the spirit moves you, let me groove ya

Good, let your love come down

Oh, get it on

Come on, baby

[Verse 10]

Do you know the meaning

I've been sanctified

Eh, girl you give me good feeling

So good

Sound like sanctified

Hold me right baby

Nothing wrong tonight, if you want to love me

Girl let yourself go, oh baby

Let's get it on
