There's a reason for the life that you live
And there's a pleasin' that I know you can give
And I've been cravin'
The love you've been savin'
So baby, won't you give it to me
You're telling me no, no, no
You don't want to let your love go
I'm telling you yes, yes, yes
You really ought to be getting some happiness
I've made a motion and it's out on the floor
And it's a notion that I'd love to explore
'Cause I've been tastin'
The love you've been wastin'
So baby, won't you give it to me
You're telling me no, no, no
You don't want to let your love go
I'm telling you yes, yes, yes
You really ought to be getting some happiness
You're a lady
And I'm here in the palm of your hand
Such a lady
How much more do you think I can stand
You're telling me no, no, no
You don't want to let your love go
I'm telling you yes, yes, yes
You really ought to be getting some happiness
You're telling me no, no, no
You don't want to let your love go
I'm telling you yes, yes, yes
You really ought to be getting some happiness
