Nellie Mckay – Baby, You've Got What It Takes lyrics

Well, now it takes more than a robin to make the winter go
And it takes two lips of fire to melt away the snow
Well, it takes two hearts a-cookin' to make a fire grow
And baby, you've got what it takes, oh yeah

You know it takes a lot of kissin'
Oh, tell me about it
To make a romance sweet
Ooh, it takes a lot of lovin' to make my life complete

And it takes a lot of woman, ooh, to knock me off my feet
And baby, you've got what it takes
Alright, I said, mm, hmm
Ah, ah, hmm, mm
You know you've got just what it takes

Because it takes more than an effort to stay away from you
It would take more than a lifetime to prove that I'll be true
But it takes somebody special to make me say, I do
And baby, you've got what it takes

Ah, ah, hah
Uh, hmm, yes now
Mmm
You know you've got just what it takes

Well, it take more than a lifetime to stay away from you, oh, baby
It takes more than a lifetime, baby, to prove that I'll be true
But it takes somebody special to make me say, I do
And baby, you've got what it takes, oh

Because it takes more than an effort to stay away from you
It would take more than a lifetime to prove that I'll be true
Oh now, well, it takes somebody special to make me say, I do
And baby, you've got what it takes

Ah, is, is that a fact, baby?
Oh, baby, oh, yeah
You've got what it takes

Oh, baby, you've got what it takes
Keep it coming, keep it coming, it use to be
Baby, you got what it takes

Oh, you got what it takes
