Leonard Feather and Sammy Price
Everybody needs practice in the art of love
20 years of practice and Lord above
I know how to do it, I know how to do it
I know how to do it good enough for anyone
If you love your man you better take good care
you'll wake one morning and he won't be there
cause I know how to do it, I know how to do it
I know how to do it good enough for anyone
I may be old fashioned, I may be dumb
may be a square and I may be a b**
but I know how to do it, I know how to do it
I know how to do it and I dish it out with ease
So don't encourage me daddy or I'll go too far
when you say, "please me mama, eight to the bar"
cause I know how to do it, I know how to do it
I know how to do it good
So if you see a fella who's mellow and fine
tell him to come and see me any old time
cause I know how to do it, I know how to do it
I know how to do it good enough for anyone
