Come On Come On
The Black Sorrows Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I got it all going
You turn it up
And you turn it all around
Hey babe, let's get it started
The chains of love aren't going to drag you down
You're a walkin' dream
Young blood
Rushin' through my soul
Out on the street
There talkin' about it
There must be some way
Momma we can roll
Come on, come on
Let's get it started
You know you got it
Babe, you make me feel right
Come on, come on
Don't try to fight
Let's get it started tonight
Now I ain't no Rudolph Valentino
I'm just a Johnny
From the street
But you've got that lovin'
Baby sure gets me going
And I ain't too proud
To get down and beg
Wild heart
I see
One shot
Covers me
Just a little bit
I'm holdin' on tight
A little lovin'
Comin' on through the night
Everytime I think
I got it all going
You turn it up
And you turn it all around
Hey babe, let's get it started
Can't wait no longer, I need you right now
You're a walkin' dream
There's no doubt about it
The chains of love
Aren't going to drag you down
Out on the street
There talkin' about it
There must be some way
Momma we can roll
Come on, come on
Let's get it started
You know you got it
Babe, you make me feel right
Come on, come on
Don't try to fight
Oh light it up, you light me up
Come on, come on
Let's get it started
You know you got it
Babe, you make me feel right
Come on, come on
Don't try to fight
Let's get it started tonight

The Black Sorrows's song Come On Come On is a rock song that expresses a yearning for love and connection. The first verse speaks to the frustration of feeling like everything is in order, only to have it all turned around by the presence of the one they desire. The chains of love are not something that will hold them back, but rather a force that propels them forward. The second verse describes the beauty of the person they desire, a walking dream with young blood rushing through their soul. They are ready to take to the streets with this person and make things happen, but at the same time, they acknowledge their vulnerability and express a willingness to beg for love.
The chorus of the song is a call to action, urging the object of their desire to let go of any hesitation and come together. They acknowledge the power that this person holds, saying "you know you got it" and suggesting that resistance is futile. They offer encouragement, telling this person that they make them feel right and that they should not try to fight the attraction between them. The repeated refrain of "come on, come on" becomes almost desperate as they plead for this person to give in to their desires.
Overall, the song captures the feeling of being swept away by love and the desire to give in to those emotions completely. It speaks to the excitement and uncertainty of new love, as well as the willingness to take risks and put yourself out there in pursuit of what you want.

Talk about the stars all aligning in one song. The music. The lyrics. The power of the three voices. Turn it up to 11 and just let the beauty and joy flow through you.
