Lyrics Loving You Is My Occupation - The Bar-Kays

Ooh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Falling in love sometimes brings about hesitation
But when it comes to lovin' you, girl, I have no reservation
'Cause in your arms, I know, is where I want to be
You've got the love it takes to satisfy my needs
My friends all laugh, sayin' what they think they see
They haven't had a chance to experience what you give me
'Cause for me, in the thrust of the time, no longer is a bother
'Cause love only holds you back, but love will take you farther, no

They don't see what it is I see in you
And they don't understand why I do the things I do
You lovin' me, girl, has kept me alive
For this I'm grateful, and I see no need to hide, hey hey

(Lovin' you) Is my only occupation
(Lovin' you) I have no reservation
(Lovin' you) Is my only inspiration
(Lovin' you) Is my lifelong motivation

Gladly I'll play this part that's been given me
'Cause the benefits of lovin' you, girl, is more than the eyes can see
In a one-on-one situation, I consider myself ahead
And I'm not about to lose this love

No, they don't seem to see what it is I see in you
And they don't understand why I do the things I do
You lovin' me, girl, has kept me alive
For this I'm grateful, and I see no need to hide, no
They don't see what it is I see in you
And they don't understand why I do the things I do
You lovin' me, girl, has kept me alive
For this I'm grateful, and I see no need to hide
Listen now

(Lovin' you) Is my only occupation
(Lovin' you) I have no reservation
(Lovin' you) Is my only inspiration
(Lovin' you) Is my lifelong motivation

Ooh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Ooh ooh yeah, ooh ooh yeah
Ow

All I wanna do
Is keep lovin' you
All I wanna do, hey
Is keep lovin' you
And we'll be alright
Long as I'm lovin' you

No, they don't see what it is I see in you
And they don't understand why I do the things I do
You lovin' me, girl, has kept me alive
For this I'm grateful, and I see no need to hide
Listen now

(Lovin' you) Is my only occupation
(Lovin' you) I have no reservation
(Lovin' you) Is my only inspiration
(Lovin' you) Is my lifelong motivation

Lovin' you
Lovin' you
Lovin' you
Lovin' you
Lovin' you
