She don’t let love get in the way
She comes around she goes away
Just a game she likes to play
She don’t let love get in the way

She’s got better things to do
Like make a million bucks or two
She works all night, she works all day
She don’t let love get in the way

Off your feet you will be swept
I’m warning you boy, better watch your step
She got this far without your help
She don’t let love get in the way

I’m not alone neither are you
She’s got other lovers too
In every town, in every state
They’re just like us they just can’t wait

Solo

You can tell her to but she won’t stop
It’s lickety split, it’s hippity hop
It’ll be that way till the day she drops
She don’t let love get in the way

She has gone, that bird has flown
The truest love I’ve never known
Out there working her fingers to the bone
She don’t let love get in the way

Now she’s has gone on down the street
A sweeter girl you’ll never meet,
Her heart is true, her kiss is sweet
But she can’t find time to play

There’re miles to go before I sleep
Hills to climb that will be steep
Precious memories I’ll get to keep
Man I won’t let love get in the way
