Got to get down, down on my knees 
Got to get down, down on my knees 
Going down on love 
Going down on love 
Going down, going down, going down 

When the real thing goes wrong 
And you can't get it on 
And your love she has gone 
And you got to carry on 
And you shoot out the light  [bad word] home for the night 
You know you got to, got to, got to pay the price 

Somebody please, please help me 
You know I'm drowning in the sea of hatred 

Got to get down, down on my knees 
Got to get down, down on my knees 
Going down on love 
Going down on love 
Going down, going down, going down 

Something precious and rare 
Disappears in thin air 
And it seems so unfair 
Nothing doin' nowhere 
Well you burn all your boats 
And you sow your wild oats 
Well you know, you know, you know the price is right! 

Got to get down, down on my knees 
Got to get down, down on my knees 
Got to get down, down on my knees 
Got to get down, down on my knees...
