I Gotta Know

(Thelma Blackmon)



Well I thought that you were a wantin' romance

But all you ever do is dance dance dance

So I boppity bop the whole night long

To the knocked out music of a jukebox song.



One thing I gotta know

I gotta know, I gotta know

If our love's the real thing

Where's my weddin' ring?



Yes we rocked and rolled till the broad daylight

You're a little too pooped to kiss your baby goodnight

I know you've had it when the rockin' is through

So I let you go home what else could I do.



One thing I gotta know

I gotta know, I gotta know

If our love's the real thing

Where's my weddin' ring?

Well I thought that you were a wantin' romance

But all you ever do is dance dance dance

So I boppity bop the whole night long

To the knocked out music of a jukebox song.



When you're on that floor you're cool man cool

But when it comes to lovin' you need to go to school

You know I'm longin' for a weddin' day

But all you ever do is play boy play.



One thing I gotta know

I gotta know, I gotta know

If our love's the real thing

Where's my weddin' ring?...
