I want L.O.D. love on delivery guaranteed
You’ve got to give a-me L.O.D
Love on delivery guaranteed
Ooh
It’s got to be.

And at the end of a long
Hard day baby
What I really need is to know there’s someone
Who’s waiting with love and sympathy.
For what is a man all alone
Ain’t got a heart
If he ain’t got a home
But with someone like you
I can come running to if I got in return all your

L.O.D. love on delivery guaranteed

And when the nights are cold and lonely
I’ll keep you warm and my shoulder will always
Be there for you to lean upon.
Just knowing that you’re around
Gives me the will
And the strength to go on
So I’m begging of you
Girl
Whatever you do
Say you won’t let me down give me

L.O.D. love on delivery guaranteed

Oh
I tell you now you’ve gotta pay your dues

Over and over again
Gimme

L.O.D. love on delivery guaranteed
