Marvin Gaye - How You Gonna Keep It (After You Get It) [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Chorus 1]
How you going to keep it after get it?
I want to know, sugar darling, yeah
How you going to keep it after you get it?
Oh baby
Sweet thing

[Verse 1]
Now I think of games sometimes
But when it comes to this heart of mine
I don't miss a bus
If you ain't got the right stuff
So I'm laying it on the line
& it's something you'd best be mine
Don't fight the fire without the words to give it up

[Chorus 2]
Oh how you going to keep it after you get it?
Oh tell me sugar, tell me sugar
How you going to keep it after you get it?
I want to know right now

[Verse 2]
Listen, your sweet talking sure sound good
& your kissing satisfied
& when you hold me in your arms
I get weak, I won't deny
But I'm not in for a one-night thrill
You've got to have enough love to pull us all over the hill

[Chorus 3]
Oh how you going to keep it?
I want to know
How you going to keep it?
I want you to think, think about it baby
Stop & start yourself
Don't let your mind ruin my heart
Is what you're laying on me fake
Or have you really got what it takes?

[Outro]
Oh how you going to keep it?
I want to know
How you going to keep it?
If I let you be careful with my ship
How you going to keep it?
I want to know, will you be able to hold your grip?
How you going to keep it?
How you going to keep it?
