Tyrone Davis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You better turn it loose
I went downtown the other day
And I heard a woman say
I do all I can for that man
At home, he still won't stay
That woman spoke
Her heart was truly broke
She said, if a man
Can't treat his woman right
Give her good loving day and night
He sure oughta
(CHORUS)
Give it up, turn it loose
(Turn it up loose)
Give it up, turn it loose
(Turn it up loose)
You need your man
To be satisfied
But he tells you no
With no reason why
You will finally find out for yourself
There ain't no love between
The two of you left
(CHORUS)
When you try as hard as you can
To do what you think is right
And still, you get that
Same old cold shoulder
Ooh, that same old shoulder
Late at night, late at night
Here's what you do
(CHORUS)
When you've done all you can do
GIve it up
When you see it just ain't no use
Turn it loose
Way lay at night
When you're laying down
And you need some hugging
And no one's around
You'll walk around all day long
With love on your mind
You're thinking about the love
That you just get sometime
(CHORUS)
When you have someone
Sitting there by your side
And ain't no company at all
All you need is a little loving touch
And when you don't get it
It hurts you so much
(CHORUS)
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, baby, turn it loose
The song "Give It Up" by Tyrone Davis is about a woman who is tired of not being loved and appreciated by her man. In the first verse, we hear the woman say that she does everything she can to make her man happy, but he still won't stay home with her. From her tone, it's clear that she is heartbroken and frustrated. The chorus encourages the woman to let go of the man who can't give her the love she deserves. The second verse tells us that the woman has tried everything she can to save the relationship, but now she realizes that it's time to move on. The song ends with a final exhortation to give up and turn loose of the unfulfilling relationship.
This song is a powerful message about the importance of self-respect and the need to let go of people who don't appreciate us. It speaks to anyone who has ever been in a relationship where they were not valued and encourages them to move on to find the love they deserve.

You better turn it loose
You need to let go
I went downtown the other day
I went to the city
And I heard a woman say
I overheard a conversation
I do all I can for that man
I give my all to him
At home, he still won't stay
He doesn't want to be home
I could tell the way
It was obvious to me
That woman spoke
What she said
Her heart was truly broke
She was really heartbroken
She said, if a man
According to her
Can't treat his woman right
If he's not treating her well
Give her good loving day and night
He should be giving her love and attention
He sure oughta
He really should
Give it up, turn it loose
Let it go
(Turn it up loose)
You need your man
You want your man
To be satisfied
To be happy
But he tells you no
He refuses you
With no reason why
He doesn't explain
You will finally find out for yourself
You'll eventually realize
There ain't no love between
There's no love left
The two of you left
In your relationship
When you try as hard as you can
When you've done everything you can
To do what you think is right
To make things better
And still, you get that
But things don't change
Same old cold shoulder
The same rejection
Ooh, that same old shoulder
Late at night, late at night
At night
Here's what you do
This is what you should do
When you've done all you can do
When you've tried everything
GIve it up
Let it go
When you see it just ain't no use
When you realize you can't change it
Turn it loose
Move on
Way lay at night
Late at night
When you're laying down
When you're in bed
And you need some hugging
When you want affection
And no one's around
When you're alone
You'll walk around all day long
You'll think about it all day
With love on your mind
Thinking about love
You're thinking about the love
You want love
That you just get sometime
That you only sometimes receive
When you have someone
If you have someone
Sitting there by your side
Next to you
And ain't no company at all
But you feel lonely
All you need is a little loving touch
You just want love
And when you don't get it
But you're not receiving it
It hurts you so much
It's painful
Give it up, give it up
Let it go
Give it up, baby, turn it loose
Move on

Tyrone Davis is the perfect man of my dreams, my secret admirer and a very good friend of mine and I love this song In The Mood and it's one of the sexiest quiet storm bedroom ballads of all time. That song makes me want to get a little sexy tonight and I like to slow dance to the slinky and seductive melody by the romantic candle lights that ignites the sensual seduction in the nighttime. And best of all, I like to feel the sultry heat of the fire burning very hot with Tyrone Davis and my body has been yearning for love and smooth passion at the stroke of twelve at midnight. RIP Tyrone Davis. Keep on singing up there in soul heaven with the late Luther Vandross, Freddie King, Jackie Wilson, Major Harris and of course, the late
