Lyrics

They were two lonely folks doin' the do's and don'ts
And got the notion together they'd be happy
Thought they'd lose the crowd 'n' do the mess around
Decided to make it snappy
Just a twist of fate they didn't hesitate
Now they had another party to lean on
She made him jump and sang he made her share that thang
Looks like they gonna have a ball ain't nothin' wrong at all
Wo they gonna have a ball

They got to askin' what if they had to scratch-n-sniff
To find out what it is they are after
Got the ants out their pants 'n' took the chance on romance
Made some plans to make it forever
Now several years have gone they still gettin' along
They know what true love is made of
Now they know that life's a trip with all it's bumps and dips
They gonna help one another along
Nothin' wrong at all still havin' a ball
Lord they really gettin' it on

Time is on their side they got nothin' to hide
Never had no secrets between them
He don't need to accuse her, use her or abuse her
And she feels the same for him
And those vows they made said nothin' 'bout slaves
And didn't mention rentin' to own
They can take the stand that walkin' hand in hand
What they got is gooder than gold
Ain't nothin' wrong at all wo they gonna have a ball
Yeah they really got it all
Love is true heart's desire without it's just a funeral pyre
Got to let your true love grow it's all you got that's gooder than gold
Let's get it on ya'll
