Lyrics

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)
What I say (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

To get fire from a match, you've got to strike it
(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, likе it, like it)

To get ashes from wood, you'vе 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 (Yeah), all the time (Yeah)
Throw the other guys right out of your mind, yeah, mhm
Mhm, woo, oh, come on now, baby
One more thing
To make broken things work, you've got to fix them
(Fix them, fix them, fix them, fix them)
Listen, to make two things one, you've got to mix them
(Mix them, mix them, mix them, mix them)

To get b***er from milk, you've got to churn it
And if you want my love, one more time, 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 (Ooh, ooh)
I'd like to see you with it (Earn it, earn it, earn it)
Just show me that you love me (Earn it, earn it, earn it)
And that you're thinking of me (Ooh, ooh, earn it, earn it, earn it)
You can get it in a hurry, baby
Just show me that you're worth it (Earn it, earn it, earn it)
