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
