Lyrics:

[Huh]I can't turn you loose now
If I do I'm gonna loose my life
[Ooh]I can't turn you loose now
If I do I'm gonna loose my life
I can't turn you loose to nobody
I love you baby, yes I do
Give shakin' mama, I told ya
I'm in love with only you
[Gotta] Baby do it baby why don't ya
I'll give ya everything you want

Gotta, gotta
Keep on holdin on
Never gonna turn you loose
I can't turn you loose
Gotta gotta
Keep on holdin on

I can't turn you loose now
I'm in love with the prettiest thing
I never, never turn you loose now
Because of all the sweet love she brings
I can't turn you loose to nobody
I love you baby, yes I do
Give shaking mama, I told ya
I'm in love with only you
Gotta, do it baby why don't ya
I'll give ya everything you want

Gotta gotta
Keep on holdin on
Never gonna turn you loose
I can't turn you loose
Gotta keep a grip on you
Gotta gotta
Keep on holdin on

[I know you think I'm gonna stop now
But we ain't gonna stop it now
One more time}

Gotta gotta
Keep on holdin on
Never gonna turn you loose
I can't turn you loose
Gotta gotta
Keep on holdin on

Gotta gotta
Keep on holdin on
Never gonna turn you loose
I can't turn you loose
Gotta gotta
Keep on holdin on

Everybody want it
Everybody can have it
Gotta, gotta

Soo, soo
Hold on, I'm comin
Gotta, gotta, gotta
Get a grip
Can't turn you loose
Hold on, I'm comin
Gotta, gotta, gotta
Get a grip

Hold on, I'm comin
Hold on, I'm comin
Gotta get a grip on you baby
Gotta, gotta gotta
Gotta, gotta gotta
We're groovin, groovin

Gotta gotta
Keep on holdin on
Never gonna turn you loose
I can't turn you loose
Gotta gotta
Keep on holdin on
Gotta get a grip
Can't turn you loose

[Fade out]
