You say you're steady and you're committed

But last night you weren't around when I needed you

You keep on talkin', but I need action

This divided affection just won't do I hate to give you an ultimatum

But when I'm in love, I want it all the way That's the bottom line

If you really wanna keep my love

Can't be givin' up what's mine Oh, that's the bottom line

I can't settle for a part time thing

Need your lovin' all the time No imitations, give me the real thing

Sugar-coated promises are not enough for me

'Cause if you're fakin', don't be mistaken

I'll be out the door, before you count to three I hate to sound uncompromising

But I'm never gonna play nobody's fool Oh, that's the bottom line

If you really wanna keep my love

Can't be givin' up what's mine Oh, that's the bottom line

I can't settle for a part-time thing

Need your lovin' all the time If you really wanna get my love

You gotta give me your lovin', no strings attached

If you really wanna keep my heart

You gotta jump it and do it, no turning back And I hate to sound uncompromising

But I'm never gonna play nobody's fool Oh, that's the bottom line

If you really wanna keep my love

Can't be givin' up what's mine Oh, that's the bottom line

I can't settle for a part-time thing

Need your lovin' all the time That's the bottom line

If you really wanna keep my love

Can't be givin' up what's mine Oh, that's the bottom line

I can't settle for a part-time thing

Need your lovin' all the time That's the bottom line

If you really wanna keep my love

Can't be givin' up what's mine Oh, that's the bottom line

I can't settle for a part-time thing

Need your lovin' all the time
