put something down on it

Bobby Womack

Lordy, Lord
Lordy, Lord
Hmm Hmm
(Bobby speaking)
You know, on my side of the town
When a persou wanted something
You had to put it in will call
And that same thing applies
To anyone that's looking for love
And that's why I'm tellin' you
(Singing)

If you want my love -- baby
Put something down on it
Put something down on it
I know youre sad and you're lonely
But you could use a little time on it
By puttin something down on it

I can tell by the look in your eye
You've been hurt by love before
But that's the price you have to pay
Sometime's life is hard and rough
But you can't give up
Can't give up, can't give up

So, if you want this love un giving, honey
You gotta put something down on it
Put something down on it
(background sings) spend a little time on it
I know youre sad and you got to be lonely
(wspend a little time on it
Spend a little time on it
Put something down on it

And ooh, sometimes temp is just a little to much
And with a touch a love -- how can ya give up
You see the roads of life is hard and rough
You might give in sometime
But you can't give up

Whoaa

(bridge)
Be with me girl when my chips are down
'Cause tommorrow the whole thing
Done turned around
And I can remember
You were there -- when the chips were down
Chips were down

Ohh!

If you want my love, honey
Put something down it
Put something down it
Spend a little time on it

All ya gotta do, girl
Ohh, ohh, baby
(background singing) put something down it
Put something down it
Spend a little time on it

There's a thing called love
And it's has no boundary, right
(background singing) put something down it
Put something down it
Spend a little time on it
It's Gotta be in your heart
And not just in your mind baby
Ohh baby
Aww

You'll seek, and you shall find
Yes youll find, yes youll find
In time in time

I think I'll make you my woman
Cause I gotta whole lotta time
That I wanna use on it, baby
I like what you do to me girl
Aww, Yeah
(background singing with Bobby) put something down it
Put something down it
Spend a little time on it

All ya gotta do is
Put something down on it -- Baby
Aww
