It's Love Lyrics

They say I'm crazy, the way you got me open, baby (oooooh)
They say I'm buggin', the way I'm tight sweatin' your lovin' (oooooh)
They all sit and wonder why, this feelin' I cannot hide
It ain't a question of pride. (oooooh)

It's Love, (oooooh) Its Love

They say I'm trippin' up the way you got my whole life flippin', (oooooh)
They say I'm losin' it. Just can't seem to keep my grip, baby (oooooh)
We all cry when we feel pain, when love is gone we're not the same
It ain't a question of brains

(oooooh) It's Love

(oooooh) It's Love
(oooooh) It's Love
(oooooh) It's Love
Love, love, love, love, love, love

Love, love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love, love

They all sit and wonder why this feelin' I cannot hide
It ain't a question of pride
(doobie doobie doobie doo) It's love
(doobie doobie doobie doo) it's love

Love, love, love, love, love, love (say what?)
Love, love, love, love, love, love (say what?)
Love, love, love, love, love, love (say what?)
Say... ay. ay, ay, ay!

Do you want it on your collard greens?
Do you want it on your candy sweets?
Do you want it on your pickled beets?
Give it to me, give it to me, give it

Do you want it on your rice and gravy?
Do you want it on your biscuits baby?
Do you want it on your black-eyed peas?
Give it to me, give it to me, give it

It's love, yeah... It's Love

Do you want it on your collard greens?
Do you want it in your candy sweets?

Do you want it in ya' ... do you want in ya'
(scat)
Do you want it on your biscuits, baby?
Do you want it on your rice and gravy?

Do you want it on your black-eyed peas?
Come on give it... give it... give it... give it to me
Love, love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love, love

Love, love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love, love
Give it... Give it... Give it... Give it
Do you want it on your collard greens?

Do you want it on your candy sweets?
Do you want it? do ya', do ya' want it?
Give it... Give it Give it... Give it
Do you want it on your rice and gravy?

Do you want it on your black-eyed peas?
Do you want it on your sweets baby?
Give it up, give it up, give it up, give it to me
Love, love, love, love, love, love (give me, that love)
Love, love, love, love, love, love (give me, that love)
Love, love, love, love, love, love (give it)
Give it to me give it to me give it
Give it to me, give it to me, give it
Give it to me, give it to me, give it
Give it to me, give it to me, give it
Give me that love, love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love, love (say what now)
Love, love, love, love, love, love (say what now)
Love, love, love, love, love, love
Give it to me, give it to me give it
Love, love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love, love
Give it to me, give it to me give it
Love, love, love, love, love, love (sweet!)
Love, love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love, love

Born Jill Heather Scott in the North Philly neighborhood of the City of Philadelphia, PA on April 4, 1972. She began her career as a performance poet. She was discovered by Amir "Questlove" Thompson of The Roots. Questlove invited her to join the band in the studios. Which resulted in the live version of "You Got Me" in 1999.

Subsequently, she collaborated with Eric Benet, Will Smith, Lupe Fiasco, Common and broadened her performing experience by touring Canada in a production of the Broadway musical Rent. Signed to Steve McKeever's newly formed Hidden Beach Recordings label, she released her debut album Who Is Jill Scott: Words and Sounds Vol. 1 in July 2000. The following summer she released Experience:Jil Scott 826+ after she released the single "A Long Walk." Scott continued to gain more recognition, eventually earning a Grammy nomination in early 2003 for Best Female Vocal Performance for "A Long Walk", Jill Scott won a Grammy award at the 2005 Grammy awards for Best R&B Solo Vocal Performance, Male or Female.

Recently, Scott was prominently featured on hip-hop artist Lupe Fiasco's 2006 single "Daydreaming" which also appeared on a new Scott collection called Collaborations on January 30, 2007.
The Collaborations collection served as "an appetizer" for her next studio album, The Real Thing: Words and Sounds Vol. 3 released September 25, 2007. A clip of the title track was released on a bonus disc from Hidden Beach Records and included with Collaborations. The lead single "Hate on Me", gained airplay in May 2007 with a video released in mid-July. In advance of the album's release, Hidden Beach released a 17-minute album sampler through their forums. Interspersed between the dozen songs previewed on the sampler was a personal explanation from Jill for the inspiration behind some of her songs.
