You've got to give a little, take a little
If you want to get a little loving
And do all the things
That make your man feel right
And if you give a little, take a little
Then you're gonna get a lotta loving
And you're never ever gonna
Have to spend another lonely night
If he needs a little loving
Then hold him
Cause if you don't the fires of love
Are gonna get a little cold and dim
And if his day don't go your way
Then take it with a little smile
After all it's the ups and downs of love
That makes it all worthwhile
You've got to give a little, take a little
If you want to get a little loving
And do all the things
That make your man feel right
And if you give a little, take a little
Then you're gonna get a lotta loving
And you're never ever gonna
Have to spend another lonely night
Never mind the times
When his feet feel the need for freedom
Just as long as they bring him on home
To you when you need him
To show you care you gotta be there
When he laughs or when he cries
There's no mistaking, giving and taking
Is the very best part of life
You've got to give a little, take a little
If you want to get a little loving
And do all the things
That make your man feel right
And if you give a little, take a little
Then you're gonna get a lotta loving
And you're never ever gonna
Have to spend another lonely night
You've got to give a little, take a little
If you want to get a little loving
And do all the things
That make your man feel right
And if you give a little, take a little
Then you're gonna get a lotta loving
