I Know What Love Is

Watching the slaves

Dig the deep beat baby

What's that sound

Shakin' the ground

Daddy gets rich off mama's rhythm

Why do you need it so much baby

Why do you need it

Come see the sun rising up

Over the backyards with me

I know, I know, I know

What love is

The hardest question

In the darkest hour

Just taking a guess

Just say yes

Just one look

In the right direction

Why do you need it so much, baby

Why do you need it

Come see the sun rising up

Over the backyards with me

I know, I know, I know

What love is

For every lover you worked over

For every stranger in your room

It takes a long time to recover

From the things you never meant to do

You know it's true

Come and get a taste of a view that's superior

Out across the rooftops

Lay it down there

As the sun rises up

Over the back yards

I know, I know, I know

What love is
