Minnie Riperton - When It Comes Down to It Lyrics

When it comes down to it and it's time to get it on
Ain't no way to do it
If you find yourself alone
'Cause all your highfalutin
Ain't worth nothin' when you're old
When it comes down to it
Love will get you more than gold
When it comes down to it
When it comes down to it

When it comes down to it
There'll be dancin' in the night
'Cause now the fools who blew it will be hidin' from the light
So mama, tell your children not to feel so all alone
'Cause when it comes down to it
He'll be there to take us home

We can get back to the garden
If we keep our karma high, yeah
We were meant to love each other
Like the birds were meant to fly

When it comes down to it
There'll be dancin' in the night
'Cause now the fools who blew it will be hidin' from the light
So mama, tell your children not to feel so all alone
'Cause when it comes down to it
He'll be there to take us home

We can get back to the garden
If we keep our karma high, yeah
We were meant to love each other
Like the birds were meant to fly

When it comes down to it, ah, ooh-ooh
When it comes down to it, ah, ooh-ooh, ah, ooh-ooh
When it comes down to it, yeah, yeah, yeah
When it comes down to it, ah, ooh-ooh, ah, ooh-ooh
When it comes down to it, ah, ooh-ooh
When it comes down to it, yeah, yeah, yeah
When it comes down to it, ah, ooh-ooh, ah, ooh-ooh
Ah, ooh-ooh, ah, ooh-ooh
