[Performed by Patrick Stump]
I've been really tryin', baby
Tryin' to hold back this feeling for so long
And if you feel like I feel, baby
C'mon, oh, c'mon, ooh
Let's get it on
Let's love, baby
Let's get it on, sugar
Let's get it on, ooh
We are all sensitive people
With so much to give
Understand me, sugar
Since we've got to be here
Let's live
I love you
There is nothing wrong with me
Loving you, we can love on
And giving yourself to me can never be wrong
If the love is true
Oh baby, ooh
You don't have to worry
I ain't gonna push, won't push you baby
So c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, baby
Stop beatin' 'round the bush
Let's get it on
Let's get it on
You know what I'm talkin' about
C'mon, baby
Let your love come out
If you believe in love
Let's get it on
Let's get it on, baby
This minute, babe
And if the spirit moves you
Let me groove you
C'mon let your love come out
If you believe in love
Let's get it on
The song "Let's Get It On" begins with the singer expressing how they have been holding back their true feelings for a long time, implying that they have a deep desire for someone. The lyrics then encourage this person to reciprocate those feelings, to come together and experience the power of their love. The song highlights the importance of understanding and accepting each other as sensitive beings with so much to give. The line "giving yourself to me can never be wrong if the love is true" is particularly poignant, as it suggests that a true love connection will never lead to regret or shame. The rest of the song reinforces the idea that love can conquer any obstacles and that it should be embraced and celebrated.
One of the most interesting aspects of the song is its origin. It was written by Marvin Gaye, a legendary singer and songwriter who has been credited with helping to shape the sound of Motown in the 1960s. Marvyn Gaye wrote it with Ed Townsend who had once told him, "I'm telling you, man, you ought to be singing about love. That's where it's at." Gaye took that advice to heart and produced "Let's Get It On" which went on to become a major hit for him in 1973.
