Baby You've Got What It Takes

(Brook Benton - Clyde Otis - Murray Stein)



Well, it takes more than a robin to make the winter go

And it takes two lips of fire to melt away the snow

Well, it takes two hearts a cookin' to make a fire grow

And baby, you've got what it takes.



You know it takes a lot of kissin' to make a romance bloom

Yeah, yeah, it takes a lot of lovin' to make my life complete

Yeah, it takes a lot of woman to knock me off of my feet

And baby, you've got what it takes.



Yeah, I said mm mm mm ah ah mm mm mm

You know honey, you've got just what it takes.



It takes more than an effort to stay away from you

And it'd take more than a lifetime yeah to prove that I'll be true

Well, it takes somebody special to make me say I do

And baby you've got what it takes.



C'mon now ah ah mm mm mm ah ah mm mm mm

You know honey, you've got just what it takes.



--- Imstrumental ---



Because it takes more than an effort to stay away from you

And it'd take more than a lifetime yeah to prove that I'll be true

Well, it takes somebody special to make me say I do

And baby you've got what it takes.



C'mon now ah ah mm mm mm ah ah mm mm mm

You know honey, you've got just what it takes.



And baby you've got what it takes...
