No, you can't keep a good man down,
when you got a good woman to keep it up.
No, you can't stand on firmer ground,
when love is the question I got enough.

Ooh, with lips so sweet
Our love just can't be beat, my darling, oh yeah.
A love like yours and mine
can stand the test of time, my darling, oh yeah.

But for tomorrow,
tomorrow never comes,
Love is the secret,
goes living on.

No, you can't keep a good man down
when you got a good woman to keep it up.
No, you can't stand on firmer ground
when love is the question I got enough.

Just when I need you,
show me the way.
You came into my world,
turned my night to day.
What good is a man without a woman?

But for the trouble,
trouble always comes.
Love is the secret,
goes living on.

No, you can't keep a good man down
When you got a good woman to keep it up.
No, you can't stand on firmer ground
When love is the question I got enough.

Ooh, your love is strong,
keep me forever young, my darling, oh yeah.
A love like yours and mine
can stand the test of time, my darling, oh yeah.

But for tomorrow,
tomorrow never comes.
Love is the secret,
goes living on.

No, you can't keep a good man down
when you got a good woman to keep it up.
No, you can't stand on firmer ground
when love is the question I've got enough.
