Gnawin` On It Songtext / Lyric

(Bonnie Raitt and Roy Rogers)



I'm down here workin' at my job

But I just can't concentrate

You keep messin' with my mind

Yeah, I'm circlin' round the bait

I got to take off early

I got to get you home

Gonna show you little woman why a dog loves a bone



We'll be gnawin' on it

Yeah, gnawin' on it

We be gnawin' on it

Ah, nah, baby don't do that






I dropped the kids at school this morning

Hung the clothes in the back

I'm trying to take care of my business

Nut my mind ain't on the track

You got me feeling kind of squirrelly

I got to get you in this place,

'Cause what I got in mind'll put a grin on your face.



We'll be gnawin' on it

Yeah, gnawin' on it

We be gnawin' on it

Ah, nah, baby don't do that



They say it's hard to keep it going

When you're together for so long

They say combustion's for the youngsters

We should be glad we get along

But they don't know nothin' 'bout it

They way you love me it's a shame

'Cause there ain't nobody better

Blowin' embers to a flame



We'll be gnawin' on it

Yeah, gnawin' on it

We be gnawin' on it

Ah, nah, baby don't do that
