What's It Take? (Live) Lyrics

Artist: Robert Palmer
Album: Maybe It's Live

Youâ‚¬â„¢re lonely can I see you
I hire a private red-eye rocket
But when I walk in here
You wanna go through all my pockets

Whatâ‚¬â„¢s it take?
Mamma whatâ‚¬â„¢s it take?

Iâ‚¬â„¢ve known you all these years
And still you overhaul my letters
They donâ‚¬â„¢t confirm your fears
But when Iâ‚¬â„¢m dead youâ‚¬â„¢ll know me better

Whatâ‚¬â„¢s it take?
Mamma whatâ‚¬â„¢s it take?

My mistake was thinking I had it covered
I havenâ‚¬â„¢t made the first move
Whatâ‚¬â„¢s it take to get it through to you mamma?
What does it take to love you?

I take you out to dinner
You ask me why Iâ‚¬â„¢m acting guilty
I thought Iâ‚¬â„¢d backed a winner
This love affair is gonna kill me

Whatâ‚¬â„¢s it take?
Mamma whatâ‚¬â„¢s it take?

You say youâ‚¬â„¢re only teasing
I wanna try a new position
You wanna know the reason
Iâ‚¬â„¢ve got a spanish inquisition

Whatâ‚¬â„¢s it take?
Mamma whatâ‚¬â„¢s it take?

My mistake was thinking I had it covered
I havenâ‚¬â„¢t made the first move
Whatâ‚¬â„¢s it take to get it through to you mamma?
What does it take to love you?

I wanna hear the gossip
You say I like a real ambition
I ask you if youâ‚¬â„¢ve got it
You document my inhibitions

Whatâ‚¬â„¢s it take?
Mamma whatâ‚¬â„¢s it take?
Mamma whatâ‚¬â„¢s it take?
Whatâ‚¬â„¢s it take?
