Mister foreman, got to tell you
I can't work too long
Coz I got to get on home
To my love bone

I know my baby's waiting
Coz she's anticipating
For I'm gonna be connected
So our love can be protected

(Going home to get my love bone)
Going home and get my love bone
(Going home to get my love bone)
I'm gonna check on my love bone
(Going home to get my love bone)
(If I were you, I'd check mine too)

Mister foreman please slow down
This assembly line
I think you better cut
Out all this overtime

Now, overtime might help
To make my money loan
But it gives my neighbor time
To steal my love bone

I know my baby's waiting
She's anticipating
I'm gonna be connected
So our love can be protected

(Going home to get my love bone)
I'm going home and get my love bone
(Going home to get my love bone)
I'm going home and get my love bone
(Going home to get my love bone) Oh yeah
(If I were you,) Oh yeah (I'd check mine too)

Ah Hey, huh huh, get up
Get up, get on home, ah ah, whoa
You're bone bring out the best in me
Oh, what a man is supposed to be

Get up, alright, get up
You better check it out now, baby
Get on back

Yeah, go and get your love bone
(Going home to get my love bone)
I'm going home and check my love bone
(Going home to get my love bone)
Ahh ho yeah, and check my love bone
(Going home to get my love bone)
Yeah (If I were you, I'd check mine too)

Mister foreman
Think we better make a compromise
If you keep me any longer
It won't be too wise

My baby thinks I'm
Fooling with another fool
Now fire me if you wanna
Coz I'm going home

I know my baby's waiting
Coz she's anticipating
But I'm gonna get connected
To our love and be protected

Going home, to get my love bones
(Going home to get my love bone)
If I were you, I'd check my love bone
(Going home to get my love bone)

I'm going home and get my love bone
(Going home to get my love bone)
Oh yeah, yeah, oww
(If I were you, I'd check mine too)

Going on home
I know a lot of other fellas oughta go home
You take like James Brown
You better check on your love bone
And you, Wilson Pickett
You better get on the telephone and check your love bone

You gave out at the time 634-5789
You better call it right now
And check on your love bone
