You've Got To Earn It Lyrics - The Temptin' Temptations - Temptations

(Yeah, yeah, yeah) 

To get stones from a rock, you've got to break it 

(Yeah, yeah, yeah) 

To get bread from dough, you've got to bake it 

(Yeah, yeah, yeah) 

To get water from a faucet, you've got to turn it 

And if you want my love, if you want my love 

You've got to earn it (Earn it, earn it, earn it) 

(Yeah, yeah, yeah) 

To get fire from a match, you've got to strike it 

(Strike it, strike it, strike it, strike it) 

To get the feeling from a kiss, you've got to like it 

(Like it, like it, like it, like it)

To get ashes from wood, you've got to burn it 

And if you want my love, if you want my love 

You've got to earn it(Earn it, earn it, earn it) 

You've got to treat me kind, all the time 

Throw the other guys right out of your mind. 

(Yeah, yeah) 

(Instrumental) 

Now listen 

To make broken things work, you've got to fix them 

(Fix them, fix them, fix them, fix them) 

To make two things one, you've got to mix them 

(Mix them, mix them, mix them, mix them) 

To get butter from milk, you've got to churn it 

And if you want my love, if you want my love 

You've got to earn it(Earn it, earn it, earn it)

If you deserve it you can get it 

I'll be glad to see you with it 

Just show me that you love me 

And that you're thinking of me 

You can get it in a hurry...
