It's groovin' time
|
That's what my baby told me
|
If you can't groove me, boy
|
You might as well let me be
|
|
It's lovin' time
|
That's what my baby told me
|
If you can't love me, boy
|
You might as well let me be
|
|
Now, she said she don't want me hangin' in the street, now
|
Don't want me goin' down seein' old Pete, now
|
Hangin' out on Broadway is not her stick, now
|
Stayin' up late at night is not her kick, now
|
Wants me to tease her all the time, now
|
Wants me to love her later in the night, now
|
|
That's what she told me
|
If you can't do it, boy
|
You might as well let me be
|
|
Baby, it's groovin' time
|
That's what my baby told me
|
If you can't groove me, boy
|
You might as well let me be
|
|
Said she don't want me shootin' no pool
|
Runnin' in the street actin' like a doggone fool
|
Said she just want me to stay at home, now
|
Just tend to my business, leave other people alone, now
|
Said she don't want me hangin' in them nightclubs
|
All them Broadway funky, funky nightclubs
|
|
That's what she told me
|
If you can't do it, boy
|
You might as well let me be
|
|
It's groovin' time
|
That's what my baby told me
|
If you can't groove me, boy
|
You might as well let me be
|
|
I said, said now, it's groovin' time
|
I got to get with my baby now
|
It's groovin' time
|
I gotta get back home to the little girl
|
I said she wanna groove me, yeah
|
I know she wanna groove, yeah
|
