You don't drive a big fast car
You don't look like a movie star
And on your money we won't get far
But baby, you got what it takes (yeah, yeah)
To satisfy (yeah, yeah)
You got what it takes to set my soul on fire
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-yeah
You got what it takes for me

Now, you don't live in a beautiful place
And you don't dress in the best of taste
And nature didn't give you such a beautiful face
But baby, you got what it takes (yeah, yeah)
To satisfy
You got what it takes to set my soul on fire
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-yeah
You got what it takes for me

Now when you're near me, ooo-wee
My head goes around and around
And when you kiss me, whoa-yeah
My love comes tumblin' down, you send me

You don't live in a beautiful place
You don't dress in the best of taste
And nature didn't give you such a beautiful face
But baby, you got what it takes (yeah, yeah)
To satisfy (yeah, yeah)
You got what it takes to set my soul on fire
Whoa-oh-oh and whoa-whoa-oh
You got what it takes for me

Now when you're near me, little girl
My head goes around and around
And when you kiss me, oh-yeah
My love comes tumblin' down
You send me

You don't live in a beautiful place
You don't dress in the best of taste
And nature didn't give you such a beautiful face
But baby, you got what it takes (yeah, yeah)
To satisfy (yeah, yeah)
You got what it takes to set my soul on fire
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-yeah
You got what it takes for me, oh-yeah
You got what it takes
You don't need no money
Baby, you do need a new car
Come on, you know
You got what it takes for me
Little girl, you got what it takes for me
Yes, baby, you got what it takes for me
Oh, yeah
