Gimme Some Lovin'
Jake Blues Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well my temperature's rising and my feet are on the floor
Twenty people knocking 'cos they're wanting some more
Let me in baby, I don't know what you've got
But you'd better take it easy, this place is hot

[Chorus]
I'm so glad we made it, I'm so glad we made it
You've gotta gimme some lovin' (gimme some lovin')
Gimme some lovin' (gimme gimme some lovin'), gimme some lovin' every day

Well I feel so good, everything is sounding hot
Better take it easy 'cos the place is on fire
Been a hard day and I don't know what to do
Wait a minute baby, it could happen to you

[Chorus]

Well I feel so good, everybody's getting high
Better take it easy 'cos the place is on fire
Been a hard day and nothing went too good
Now I'm gonna relax honey, everybody should

[Chorus]

Gimme some lovin' (gimme some lovin') I need it




(Gimme gimme some lovin') I need it
Ooh, gimme some lovin', every day, every day

the Belushi's voice is eternal. I love this song.

@justinwalker4475

yeah baby :)

@AriOrSomething

You earned $200 from the show, and you drank $300 worth of beer.

@punknoodles0

@Mr nobody Returns With today's market, $300 ain't much divided among the whole band.

@Bennahr_Fett

@@punknoodles0 In 1980 not the modern 20s

@rosalitabender6910

@Stefano Pavone He never specifically says how much they owe him, he just says they drank 200 worth of beer.

@jcarry5214

@Stefano Pavone If you have zero then 100 is equally as impossible as 1000

@MoviePro84

@Stefano Pavone Yeah, but they didn't even have the money for that.
