Baby(You've Got What It Takes) - Dinah Washington/Brook Benton

Written by：Clyde Lovern Otis/Murray Stein

Well now

It takes more than a robin

To make the winter go

And it takes two lips of fire

To melt away the snow

Well it takes two hearts

A cooking to make a fire grow

And baby you've got what it takes

You know it takes a lot of kissing

Tell me about it

To make a romance sweet

Ooh it takes a lot of loving

To make my life complete

Mmm and it takes

A lot of woman to knock me off my feet

And baby you've got what it takes

I said mm mm mm

Uh huh mm mm mm

You know you've got just

What it takes

Because it takes more

Than an effort to stay away from you

It'd take more than a lifetime

To prove that I'll be true

But it takes somebody special

To make me say

I do

Oh yeah

And baby

You've got what it takes

Ah ah hah mm mm

Mmm

You know you've got

Just what it takes

Because it takes oh yeah

You're back in my spot again

Honey

I like your spot

To stay away from you

I can't stay away from you

It takes more than a lifetime

Daddy to prove that I'll be true

Now it's you

But it takes somebody special

Like me baby

To make me say

I do

And baby you've got what it takes

Come on let's play it again huh

Come on let's do it one more time

All right

And baby you've got what it takes

One more time Brook

Ah ha

OK

Ah ha

And baby you've got what it takes
