Van Morrison - Baby You Got What It Takes Lyrics

Submitted by: AUTO-ADD
Current Rating: None
Well, it takes more than a robin
To make a winter cold
Then it takes two lips of fire
To melt away the snow
Yeah, and it takes two hearts a-cookin'
To make a fire glow
And baby, you got what it takes

(Pullin' together)

Well, it takes a lot of kissin'
To make a romance sweet
And it takes a lot of lovin'
To make my life complete

And it takes a lot of woman
To knock me off-a my feet

And baby, you got what it takes

Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-we
Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-we
Baby, you've got just what it takes

And it takes more than an effort
To stay away from you
And it takes more than a lifetime
To prove that I'll be true
(Sing it with me)

Yeah, and it takes somebody special
To make me say, "I do"
And baby, you got what it takes

Woo-woo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-we
Woo-woo-woo-woo-woo-we
Baby, you got just what it takes

Well, it takes more than an effort (hoo)
To stay away from you (ooo, I know it)
And it takes more than a lifetime
To prove that I'll be true

And it takes somebody special
To make me say, "I do"
And baby, you got what it takes
Oh yeah

And baby, you got what it takes

And baby, you got what it takes

Boogie Chillen

(John Lee Hooker & Bernard Besman)

Spoken:
When I first came to town, people
I was walking down Hasting Street
Everybody was talkin' about, Henry Swing Club
I decided to stop in there for awhile
And man, when I got there
Yeah, they were really havin' a ball

Sings:
Well, I feel so good
I wanna boogie, I wanna boogie, I wanna boogie
Well, to the break of day
(Say, it again)

Well, I feel so good
I wanna boogie, I wanna boogie, I wanna boogie
Well, to the break of day
(Alright)

When I was a young boy
I was layin' down one night
And I heard ma and pa talkin'
I heard pa tell ma
"Hey, come on, let that boy boogie-woogie
'Cause you know it's in him
And it's just got to come out"
'Cause it's in him
And it's just got to come out

Well, feels so good, child
I wanna boogie, I wanna boogie, I wanna boogie
Lord, 'til the break-a day
(Chillen, I'm chillen here)

Well, feels so good, now Lord
I wanna boogie, I wanna boogie, I wanna boogie
Yeah-ow, 'til the break of day
