[Chorus]
Keep the ball rollin', keep the ball rollin'
Girl, the name of the game is love
On your mark, get set, let the kissin' start
And just keep the ball rollin', baby
Right into my heart
[Verse 1]
How can you ask me to try to get by
With just one little kiss? (One little kiss)
The kissin' you do, I need a second helpin' to
(Need a second helpin', need a second helping to)
When you light the fire in my heart
And ev'ry part of me is burning for you
You got to put your lips closer to mine (Closer to mine)
Girl, you got to follow it through (You got to follow it through)
You gotta follow it through (You got to follow it through)
[Chorus]
Keep the ball rollin', keep the ball rollin'
Girl, the name of the game is love
On your mark, get set, let the kissin' start
And just keep the ball rollin', baby
Right into my heart
[Verse 2]
Half of a loaf isn't better than none (Half of a loaf isn't better)
When I'm starvin' for you (When I'm starvin' for you)
Don't hold me tight if ev'ry night we stop at two
(Don't stop! Keep the ball rollin')
If you want me there when you call
Then, girl, it's all or nothing next time you do
You got to put your lips closer to mine (Closer to mine)
Girl, you got to follow it through (You got to follow it through)
You gotta follow it through, yeah (You got to follow it through)
[Chorus]
Come on, honey (Baby!)
And-a keep the ball rollin', keep the ball rollin'
Girl, the name of the game is love
On your mark, get set, let the kissin' start
And just keep the ball rollin', baby
Right into my heart
[Chorus]
Yeah, keep the ball rollin', keep the ball rollin'
Girl, the name of the game is love
On your mark, get set, let the kissin' start
And just keep the ball rollin', baby
Right into my heart
