Well we don’t got the kind of love

As in the movies that we watch

And sometimes we don’t talk it out

And sometimes we just have to touch

Now me, I ain’t no Romeo

And she ain’t no Juliet

All that I can say

We got a workin’ love affair

 

            When problems come along, we try to work them out

            Agreed to disagree that’s what love’s about

            We had ups and downs year after year

            We won’t drift apart, we got a workin’ love affair

 

I don’t see a reason why I should

Just pack my things and go

Even if the times ain’t good

I won’t raise my hand to her

She ain’t no punching bag

And I ain’t no boxer

 All I know is that

We got a workin’ love affair

 

            When problems come along, we try to work them out

            Agreed to disagree that’s what love’s about

            We had ups and downs year after year

            We won’t drift apart, we got a workin’ love affair

 

We don’t want our kids growing to see

Their mother and father fighting every night

I guess that there is our common ground

So we strive to do what is right

But sometimes I forget the little things

That may mean a whole lot to her

And she messes up sometimes too

But that don’t mean we can’t survive here

We got a workin’ love affair!

 

Well atleast we got the kind of trust

That don’t have us skeptically paranoid

But as sure as the wind blows dust

There are things we can’t avoid

But coming to heart of it

I treat my woman sincere

And she does the same for me

We got communication in our affair

 

            When problems come along, we try to work them out

            Agreed to disagree that’s what love’s about

            We had ups and downs year after year

            We won’t drift apart, we got a workin’ love affair
