Lyrics

Give it up baby
Don't be so mean
Give it up baby
Why don't you come clean?
What harm can come from a stolen kiss?
How could ya leave me at a time like this?
Convicted by forbidden bliss, you hit the road like a fugitive
Give it up baby
Give it to me
I said give it up baby
It's time come clean
Were we just getting too intimate?
Like falling into a bottomless pit?
Committed crimes are pa-passionate and just when it gets so primitive, you hit the road like a fugitive
Work me now!
Work me now!
Show me how!
Work me now!
Running scared's no way to live
Hesitant and tentative
Something else has got to give
It can be so primitive!
Oh!
All in one night we'll scheme our way to the heavens
You're captive in my grip
You're watching time crawl by
Attending to my needs
Emotion boiling over, I count the explosions
Then you hit the road like a fugitive!
Hey!
Work me now!
Oh baby show me how!
Work me now!
Work me now!
Staring for a moment as I sneak attack
You run away
I watch your back
You got to make your getaway
You better get it good
You're just a primitive, a fugitive
Whoa! I said work me now!
Come on and work me now!
Oh baby, baby, show me how!
I said surrender, surrender give it to me
Mmm, baby give it up, don't be so mean
Ah baby baby can't ya, why don'tcha come clean
Come on and show me how!
Baby, work me now!
