Makin' Love Is Good for You - Brook Benton

Ain’t nobody can live forever

It’s just something that we all understand

But while you’re young, y’all

We can make it better

If we take care of our bodies while we can

'Cause makin' love is good for you

Makin' love is good for you

So take care of your body

Make a little love today

Man and woman get together

Play the game and swear they’re havin' fun

But if we make a little love

From the very start

What a lovely way to get to know someone

So makin' love is good for you

Makin' love is good for you

Take care of your body

Make a little love today

Everybody have their own way

To get themselves together

But for me there’s only one way

To get my poor body off the ground

'Cause makin' love is good for you

Makin' love is good for you

So take care of your body

Make a little love today

Let the wise man think about it

I’ll just put my thinkin' all on the shelf

But if the good Lord made something better than love

I swear he must’ve kept it there for himself

'Cause makin' love is good for you

Makin' love is good for you

So take care of your body

Make a little love today, oh
