Lyrics

Everybody needs practice in the art of love
20 years of practice and lord above
I know how to do it, i know how to do it
I know how to do it good enough for anyone
If you love your man you better take good care
You’ll wake one morning and he won’t be there
Cause i know how to do it, i know how to do it
I know how to do it good enough for anyone
I may be old fashioned, i may be dumb
May be a square and i may be a bum
But i know how to do it, i know how to do it
I know how to do it and i dish it out with ease
So don’t encourage me daddy or i’ll go too far
When you say, «please me mama, eight to the bar»
Cause i know how to do it, i know how to do it
I know how to do it good
So if you see a fella who’s mellow and fine
Tell him to come and see me any old time
Cause i know how to do it, i know how to do it
I know how to do it good enough for anyone
