Lyrics for I Know How To Do It
Everybody needs practice in the art of love I've had twenty years practice And Lord above I know how to do it I know how to do it I know how to do it good enough for anyone If you love your man you'd better take good care Or you'll wake one mornin' and he won't be there 'Cause I know how to do it I know how to do it I know how to do it good enough for anyone I may be old fashioned, I may be dumb I may be a square and I may be a bum But I know how to do it I know how to do it I know how to do it and I'll dish it out with ease Don't encourage me, baby, or I'll go too far When you said, "Beat me, mama, eight to the bar" I know how to do it I know how to do it I know how to do it and I'll dish it out with ease So if you see a man who's mellow and fine Tell him to come and see me any old time I know how to do it I know how to do it I'll keep on doin' it as long as it's easy done
