Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, baby now let's get down tonight

Ooh baby, let's get down tonight

Baby
Baby let's get down tonight
Ooh
Baby, I'm hot just like an oven
Ooh
Baby now let's get down tonight

Baby, I'm hot just like an oven
I need some lovin'
And baby, I can't hold it much longer
It's getting stronger and stronger

And when I get that feeling
I want sexual healing
Sexual healing, oh baby
Makes me feel so fine

Helps to relieve my mind
Sexual healing baby, is good for me
Sexual healing is something that's good for me

Baby, I'm hot just like an oven
I need some lovin'
And baby, I can't hold it much longer
It's getting stronger and stronger

Baby, I got sick this mornin'
A sea was stormin' inside of me
Baby, I think I'm capsizin'
The waves are risin' and risin'

And when I get that feeling
I want sexual healing
Sexual healing is good for me
Makes me feel so fine, it's such a rush
Helps to relieve the mind, and it's good for us

Sexual healing, baby, it's good for me
Sexual healing is something that's good for me

You're my medicine, open up and let me in
Darling, you're so great, I can't wait for you to operate
You're my medicine, open up and let me in
Darling, you're so great, I can't wait for you to operate

Baby, open up and let me in
It's getting stronger and stronger
Baby, open up and let me in
I can't wait for you to operate
I can't wait for you to operate, baby
I can't wait for you to operate




Baby, open up and let me in
I can't wait for you to operate
