Lyrics
The Price (Fool In Love)
I've got a woman, She keeps me on the edge of my seat
I worry 'bout her all day through
When it comes to loving I feel complete it feels so sweet
The reason for the things I do
I stumbled on to love, It made me feel so smart
But little did I know, That if I want to keep your love
I gotta work so hard ( That's smart! )
With a heave and a hoe, Just to make our loving go
It's the price I'm glad to pay for loving you
Take it up break it down, Just to keep it going 'round
It's the price I'm glad to pay for loving you
Who else would do a thing, A thing like that
But a fool in love And that's a well known fact, That's a fact
We've had our problems, I've grown up just from hanging with you
But there's so much we've yet to learn
When we can't solve them You run away you say we're through
I'm set to task for your return
I stumbled on to love, Ooh it made me feel so cool
But how was I to know, That you were gonna work me like some kind of
power tool ( that's cruel! )
With a heave and a hoe, Just to make our loving go
It's the price I'm glad to pay for loving you
Gonna pump gonna grind, Just to get you girl to tow the line
It's the price I'm glad to pay for loving you
Who else would do a thing, A thing like that
But a fool in love and that's a well known fact, That's a fact!
(instrumental)
I stumbled on to love, Ooh it made me feel so smart
But little did I know, little did I know!
I gotta handle love with care or it's gonna break apart ( My heart! )
With a heave and a hoe, Just to make our loving go
It's the price I'm glad to pay for loving you
Take it up break it down, Just to keep it going 'round 'n' 'round
It's the price I'm glad to pay for loving you
Who else would do a thing, A thing like that
But a fool in love and that's a well known fact ( that's a fact! )
With a heave and a hoe, Just to make this whole thing go
It's the price I'm glad to pay for loving you yeah
Going in going out, You're the well and I'm the town of drought
It's the price I'm glad to pay for loving you
Who else would do a crazy thing like that, But a fool in love
And that's a well known fact, That's a fact!
