Lyrics You Got To Know How - Bonnie Raitt, Friends, Lowell George

You Got To Know How

You can make me do what you wanna do
But you got to know how
You can make me cry, you can make me sigh
But you got to know how
You can make me do like this, you can make me do like that
Woh, baby, but you got to know how
Once a pal of mine stole a guy of mine
But I got him back, now
It’s the same old song, she couldn’t keep him long
'Cause she didn’t know how
Well, I love my man, I make him holler
Woh, my
Yessir, I really know how
Technique ain’t tough, if you care enough
You can learn to know how
I might drop a hint how to strike my flint
If you yearn to know how
Well, don’t tell me about the life you led
Don’t try to drink me into bed
No, baby, no, that ain’t the way how
You got to take your time, you know it ain’t no crime
If it lasts all night
I think you’ll be ideal when you begin to feel
That you’re doin' right
When you love me right, you hear me holler
Woh, my
Yessir, when you really know how
And if you stay with me, who knows how it will be
When we finally know how
We’ll get a house in town, no need to move around
When we really know how
Well, there’s tricks that I don’t even know
Ones we’ll make up as we go
Woh, mister, when we really know how
Yes, mister, when we really know how
