When We Get Down on It Songtext
von Average White Band

Funny how I was there from the beginning
But you never heard my cry
Reaching out to the ones who were not giving
They were never on your side

(When we get down to it) You were meant for me
(When we get round to it, babe) You′re gonna want the world to see
(When we get down to it) Nothing else but love will do
(When we get round to it, babe)

I wanna be down, be down with you, girl
Oh, oh, be down with you
(When we get around to it)

Can't you see all the chances we′ve been missing
All the nights that passed us by, baby
Now we're alone, your lips are mine for kissing
No time to wrestle with your pride


(When we get down to it) You were meant for me
(When we get round to it, babe) You're gonna want the world to see
(When we get down to it) Nothing else but love will do
(When we get round to it, babe) I wanna be down with you

Oh baby, it′s no ordinary thing that we share
What you give to me, girl
Oh, there′s no reason we should try to hide it
Take love when you find it, uh-huh

(When we get down to it) You were meant for me
(When we get round to it, babe) I want the whole wide world to see
(When we get down to it) Nothing else but love will do
(When we get round to it, babe) I wanna be down with you, girl
(When we get down to it) Oh darling, you were meant for me
(When we get round to it, babe) You're gonna want the world to see
(When we get down to it) Oh, nothing but love will do
(When we get round to it, babe) I wanna be down with you


(When we get down to it) Oh baby, yeah
(When we get round to it, babe) When
We get right down to the real thing
(When we get down to it) Oh, nothing else but love will do
(When we get round to it, babe) I′m in love with you
(When we get down to it)
(When we get round to it, babe)
