Lyrics Makin' Love Is Good for You - Brook Benton

Makin' Love Is Good for You

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
