"She's Got What It Takes" lyrics

They brought you up in a small town
They'll lay you down in the same ground
You probably put on the pounds
Naked baby, oh my

You were born on a bad track
You heard your life on a playback
You'd spend it all in a sack
If she'd just give you the tide

You sit back staring at the television
You drink till your body, it aches
You've got all the brakes
And enjoying the ride

You're made the formal in black tie
(She's got what it takes)
But hung around with the wrong guy
(She's got what it takes)
Who left you laying outside
While your baby don't smile

She spent your pay-cheque to be sure
(She's got what it takes)
Then left you cold at the front door
(She's got what it takes)
You're only twenty and poor
How could life be unkind?

And your body, it brakes
And the disco's wild
And she's got what it takes
And she just gives me the sign
That sign

You sit back staring at the television
You drink till your body, it aches
You've got all the brakes
She's got what it takes
She's got what it takes

(She's got what it takes)
(She's got what it takes)
Wild, wild, wild, wild man, I can't hear plenty enough
(She's got what it takes)
I said somethin' about life, somethin' about love
(She's got what it takes)
Baby, comin' down from above
(She's got what it takes)
(She's got what it takes)
My baby, she's a hurricane, she's a hurricane
(She's got what it takes)
Sitting there smilin' with a cool refrain
(She's got what it takes)
She's got it, she's got it, she's got it
She's got what it takes
