Lyrics
What do I have to do
Expressing a desire to understand the actions needed.
What do I have to say
Seeking clarity on the words or expressions required.
To get you to come over girl
Inviting the girl to come over.
And let me have my way tonight
Expressing a desire to have control or influence tonight.
Is it wrong, is it right, for me and you to just get down
Questioning the morality of engaging in a romantic encounter.
Chorus:
Can we get down
Asking if they can engage in a romantic encounter.
Can you hear the sound
Checking if the girl is receptive to the idea.
When love's callin' you
Referencing the call of love and its impact.
Callin' me sexually lady
Highlighting a sexual aspect of the relationship.
Please let me
Expressing a plea for permission or agreement.
What are your dreams of
Inquiring about the girl's aspirations or desires.
I can make them come true
Promising to fulfill the girl's dreams if shared.
Just tell me girl and I'll try to supply them for you tonight
Committing to attempting to provide for her desires tonight.
Is it wrong, is it right, black and white, day in night
Questioning the morality in various situations.
Chorus:
Can we get down
Reiterating the desire to engage in a romantic encounter.
Can you hear the sound
Checking for the girl's response to love's call.
When love's callin' you
Referencing the impact of love's call.
Callin' me sexually lady
Emphasizing the sexual aspect of the call of love.
Please let me
Expressing a plea for permission or agreement.
Bridge:
There is a way to wake up in the morning time
Describing a positive morning experience by being together.
By my side and feel just fine
Highlighting the positive emotions of being close in the morning.
It would be so much better
Expressing a belief that trust enhances the relationship.
If you could just trust you heart
Stressing the importance of trusting one's heart in decisions.
To make the right decision
Encouraging the girl to trust her feelings for the right decisions.
I can lead you only half way baby
Admitting limitations in leading but willing to guide partially.
Please say we can get down and down, down, down, down, dirty baby
Pleading for a more intimate and passionate encounter.
Chorus:
Can we get down
Reiterating the desire to engage in a romantic encounter.
Can you hear the sound
Checking for the girl's response to love's call.
When love's callin' you
Referencing the impact of love's call.
Callin' me sexually lady
Emphasizing the sexual aspect of the call of love.
Please let me
Expressing a plea for permission or agreement.
Repeat to Fade
Repetition of the plea to fade.
