Backup: Pumpin' Blowin' x2

Hey,It's an old wives story

Said it's an old wives tale

I say that love is glory

I tell ya, love's so frail

Lovin' needs a bandage

And intensive care

And it's a disadvantage

If your playin' fair

If you're treading water and romance is on the slide

Don't you know you have to swallow something more than water it's your pride

CHORUS

Ah, hah, I've huffed and puffed

Just to keep love going

I'm done, I've had enough

Of the pumpin and the blowin

Backup: Pumpin', Blowin' x2

You know a womans labour

Is never ever done

So do me a favour

And father, tell your son

If he's treading water and romance is on the slide

Don't you know you have to swallow something more than water, it's you pride

CHORUS x2

Backup: Pumpin', Blowin' (repeat to fade)
