Lyrics

[Chorus]
No, you can't keep a good man down
When you got a good woman to keep it up
No, you can't stand on firmer ground
When love is the question, I got enough
[Verse 1]
Ooh, with lips so sweet
Our love just can't be beat, my darling (Oh yeah)
A love like yours and mine can stand the test of time, my darling (Oh yeah)
[PreChorus]
But for tomorrow
Tomorrow never comes
Love is the secret
Goes living on
[Chorus]
No, you can't keep a good man down
When you got a good woman to keep it up
No, you can't stand on firmer ground
When love is the question, I got enough
[Verse 2]
Just when I need you, show me the way
You came into my world, turned my night to day
What good is a man without a woman?
[PreChorus]
But for the trouble
Trouble always comes
Love is the secret
Goes living on
[Chorus]
No, you can't keep a good man down
When you got a good woman to keep it up
No, you can't stand on firmer ground
When love is the question, I got enough
[Verse 3]
Ooh, your love is strong
Keep me forever, you're my darling (Oh yeah)
A love like yours and mine can stand the test of time, my darling (Oh yeah)
[PreChorus]
But for tomorrow
Tomorrow never comes
Love is the secret
Goes living on
[Chorus]
No, you can't keep a good man down
When you got a good woman to keep it up
No, you can't stand on firmer ground
When love is the question, I got enough
