Get It Up For Love
Tata Vega · Try My Love [1978]
Hard to say just what the outcome will be
If you saw the riddle, you can save your soul
Chase love's shadows 'til the river's running cold
Then hey, baby, get it up, get it up for love
Oh hey, baby, get it up, get it up for love, babe
Get it up, get it up for love
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
There's a longing in the people
No one knows just when the heartaches will cease
You can free and tell her, you can stay and fight
You can stand in line and scream: Hey, it's just my right
Hey, babe, get it up, get it up for love
Ooh, oh, why don't you
Hey, baby, let it up, get it up for love, babe
Get it up for love
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
So a smile, another fallin' star
Scatters by the way side
So until we find
Just exactly put your hand in mine
It's a tricky situation
Heaven knows just where the struggle must end
If it takes forever, I'd got the time to burn
I won't desert you when the tables have turned
Hey, baby, (turned) get it up, get it up for love
Get it up for love, my baby
Hey, baby, get it up, get it up for love, babe
Ooh, oh why don't you
Hey, baby, get it up, get it up for love
Hey, baby
Get it up, get it up, get it up, get it u-up
Get it up, get it u-u-up, get it up, get it up for love
Hey, baby, get it up, get it up for love, babe
Hey, baby, baby, get it up, get it up for love
Ooh, get it up, get it up, get it up for love
