Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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
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
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
Gimme Some Lovin' (Gimme Some Lovin') I Need It
(Gimme Gimme Some Lovin') I Need It
Ooh Gimme Some Lovin' Every Day Every Day
