Píseň: Love Or Something Like It

Interpret:
Kenny Rogers
Album:
Country Classics
Show me a bar with a good looking woman,
then just get out of my way.
Turn on the jukebox,
I'll show you a song you should play.


Sooner or later few shots of bourbon
I'll think of something to say.
Oh I could take her or leave her
but I'd like take her away.


Liquor and music, good combination
if you got love on the brain.
I never knew two 
women who acted the same


Some wanna drink first
some wanna just sit and talk.
Oh it's two in the morning
I'm running and she wants to walk


Something's gotta hold on me
it's cheap but it ain't free.
Love or something like it's 
gotta hold on me.


That's when I ask her my place or your place
I hope I'm not out of line
I asked the wrong thing with 
just the right women this time.


She knew a hotel
she even had her name weekly signed.
Oh the cheaper the grapes are
the sweeter the taste of the wine.


Something's gotta hold on me
it's cheap but it ain't free.
Love or something like its 
gotta hold on me.


Somethings gotta hold on me
it's cheap but it ain't free.
Love or something like its 
gotta hold on me.


Somethings gotta hold on me
it's cheap but it ain't free.
Love or something like its 
gotta hold on me.
