You've Got To Earn It - Single Version (Mono)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
To get stones from a rock
You've got to break it
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
To get a 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)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
To get fire from a match
You've got to 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, like it, like it)
To get ashes from wood
You've 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 all the time
Throw the other guys
Right out of your mind, yeah, yeah
Now listen, to make broken things work
You've got to fix them
(Fix them, fix them, fix them, fix them)
To make two things one
You've got to mix them
(Mix them, mix them, mix them, mix them)
To get butter from milk
You've got to churn it
And if you want my love
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
(Earn it, earn it, earn it)
I'll be glad 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
(Earn it, earn it, earn it)
To get stones from a rock
You've got to break it
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
To get a 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)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
To get fire from a match
You've got to 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, like it, like it)
To get ashes from wood
You've 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 all the time
Throw the other guys
Right out of your mind, yeah, yeah
Now listen, to make broken things work
You've got to fix them
(Fix them, fix them, fix them, fix them)
To make two things one
You've got to mix them
(Mix them, mix them, mix them, mix them)
To get butter from milk
You've got to churn it
And if you want my love
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
(Earn it, earn it, earn it)
I'll be glad 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
(Earn it, earn it, earn it)
