Lyrics
Making it
Ronnie Bee
I grew up on the wrong side of town, cornbread, taters, and beans all around
Twenty-five cents for a pack of cigarettes, I'm gonna make the big time yet.
Even my best friends all put me down, never gonna earn a social crown
Never be nothing, never go far, never be rich, never be a star.
I got busy, and went to school, reading, writing, and math were cool.
flattered my teachers, and flirted with the girls, I found me a genuine pearl.
Even our bests friends still put us down, you'll never see your names in town
Married a loser, won't last a year, but me and my sweetie stopped up our ears.
Me and my sweetie are makin' it, me and my sweetie are makin' it,
When we are right, we can do no wrong, we're are in love and we're makin' it.
Me and my sweetie are makin' it, me and my sweetie are makin' it,
Getting along just like this little song, says we're in love and we're makin' it.
Here I am now my hair is gray, I thank God that for each brand new day
We have a home, a new set of friends, we'll be making it to the end.
We don't care what our friends said, their words came down on their heads,
We are still in love today, riches and stars, just fade away.
Me and my sweetie are makin' it, me and my sweetie are makin' it,
When we are right, we can do no wrong, we are in love and we're makin' it.
Me and my sweetie are makin' it, me and my sweetie are makin' it,
Getting along just like this little song, says we're in love and we're makin' it.
Me and my sweetie are makin' it, me and my sweetie are makin' it,
Getting along just like this little song, says we're in love and we're makin' it.
