[Chorus 1] How you going to keep it after get it? I want to know, sugar darling, yeah How you going to keep it after you get it? Oh baby Sweet thing [Verse 1] Now I think of games sometimes But when it comes to this heart of mine I don't miss a bus If you ain't got the right stuff So I'm laying it on the line & it's something you'd best be mine Don't fight the fire without the words to give it up [Chorus 2] Oh how you going to keep it after you get it? Oh tell me sugar, tell me sugar How you going to keep it after you get it? I want to know right now [Verse 2] Listen, your sweet talking sure sound good & your kissing satisfied & when you hold me in your arms I get weak, I won't deny But I'm not in for a one-night thrill You've got to have enough love to pull us all over the hill [Chorus 3] Oh how you going to keep it? I want to know How you going to keep it? I want you to think, think about it baby Stop & start yourself Don't let your mind ruin my heart Is what you're laying on me fake Or have you really got what it takes? [Outro] Oh how you going to keep it? I want to know How you going to keep it? If I let you be careful with my ship How you going to keep it? I want to know, will you be able to hold your grip? How you going to keep it? How you going to keep it?
