Lyrics
Oughta Be In Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A winning love is hard enough to find,
and when you've got it, never leave it behind.
hold on, and give it all you have,
when it's given back, you'll be a powerful man...
And well, here she comes,
in walks my baby,
her smile's more than enough to tell me why...
Shouldn't you oughta be in love?
wouldn't you rather be in love?
shouldn't you oughta be in love?
wouldn't you rather be in love?
With the headlights, up above, you light my way.
safe in my heart, i'll never be led astray.
when you wanna leave the troubled world behind you,
pack up your woes, and worries, and never you mind...
And well, here she comes,
in walks my baby.
her smile's more than enough to tell me why...
Shouldn't you oughta be in love?
wouldn't you rather be in love?
shouldn't you oughta be in love?
wouldn't you rather be in love...?
(you oughta be in love...) (8x)
Shouldn't you oughta be in love?
wouldn't you rather be in love?
shouldn't you oughta be in love?
wouldn't you rather be in love?
