Makin' Love Don't Always Make Love Grow Lyrics - Tanya Tucker

The first time that I said let's start our family 

He said, "Hon I've got the whole wide world to see 

So come along and be this drifter's lady 

The best next thing to love is bein' free" 

And I said, "Don't you feel the need to have some kids and settle down?" 

He said not while there's some places left to go, yeah 

I'd like to love you in Alaska underneath the midnight sun 

I said, "Makin' love don't always make love grow oh didn't you know" 

Acapulco and the Mexicaly sunshine, Hawaii on a rooftop in the rain 

Out of Rio De Janeiro on a tramp liner and just outside of Paris on a train 

I said don't you feel the need to have some kids and settle down 

He said not while there's some places left to go

I'd like to love you in the backseat of a taxi leavin' town 

I said, "Makin' love don't always make love grow oh didn't you know 

And one day walkin' on the beach of Monterey" 

A little girl came up and took me by the hand 

And said, "Mom is it okay if I go swimmin'?" 

But when he saw her mistake he blushed and ran 

He laughed and reached for me but I just stepped away 

I fought away the tears and tried to smile 

Suddenly I knew I'd wait for him no longer 

Just as suddenly he changed his style 

He said, "Don't you feel the need to have some kids and settle down?" 

Someday everybody leads a home

Yes, I'm finally learnin' love is more than just a runnin' round 

But makin' love is hard to do alone 

I said, "Don't you feel the need to have some kids and settle down" 

Babe, I'm gonna take it on my own 

See I'm finally learnin' love is more than just a runnin' round 

Why makin' love might even make love grow 

Didn't you know didn't you know?
