Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Let's do it, let's do it

Let's do it, let's do it

Ooh, babe

Let's do it

Take your time, come on, baby

Let's do it

Ooh, baby, babe

Let's do it

Take your time

Let's do it

You know you ought to slow down

You've been working too hard, and that's a fact

Sit back and relax a while

Take some time to laugh and smile

Lay your heavy load down

So we can stop and kick back

It seems we never take the time to do

All the things we want to, yeah

[Verse 2]

Now, baby, we can do it, take the time, do it right

We can do it, baby, do it tonight

Baby, we can do it, take the time, do it right

We can do it, baby, do it tonight

Baby, we can do it, take the time, do it right

We can do it, baby, do it tonight

Baby, we can do it, take the time, do it right

We can do it, baby, do it tonight

[Verse 3]

The love I feel for you

You feel for me

One life is all we have to live

Our love is all we have to give, yeah

There are so many things

For us to do and see, yeah

Let's take some time to be alone

Lock the door, pull out the phone, yeah

[Verse 4]

And baby, we can do it, take the time, do it right

We can do it, baby, do it tonight

Baby, we can do it, take the time, do it right

We can do it, baby, do it tonight

Baby, we can do it, take the time, do it right

We can do it, baby, do it tonight

Baby, we can do it, take the time, do it right

We can do it, baby, do it tonight

[Verse 5]

Take your time

Take the time

Take the time

Take the time

[Verse 6]

Take your time, ooh, baby

Take your time, if it takes all night

We can do it, we can do it, we can do it alright

We can do it, we can do it till the early mornin' light

We can do it, come on, baby, we can do it all night

Take your time, come on, baby, let's do it tonight

Take your time, baby, if it takes all night

We can do it, we can do it, come on, let's do it, do it right

Take your time, ooh, baby

Come on, let's do it, let's do it, let's do it all night
