Detailed Analysis
These lyrics center on romantic and sexual pursuit, with several elements that carry suggestive undertones. Phrases like 'come and get it,' 'you got to get with it,' 'what I've got you can't fake it,' and 'all that love really needs is just a little pitty push' function as double entendres and euphemisms that imply sexual availability and seduction beyond simple romantic interest. The repeated urging of a woman to act on physical desire, combined with the narrator's emphasis on his experience ('I've been around the block') and the call to stop 'playing games' and 'beat around the bush,' frames this as a song primarily about pursuing a casual or physical encounter. There is no explicit language, violence, or drug/alcohol content, and the delivery is relatively playful, but the underlying theme of sexual availability and seduction is consistent throughout. This places the content above the threshold for mild romantic themes and warrants a recommended age of 16.

Lyrics
If you want the love of a man, Come and get it (baby) If you want the love of a man, Come and get it If you want the love of a real good man Come and shout me I make you understand Don't you just look Come and take it Cause what i've got You know you can't fake it If you want the love of a man, Come and get it If you want the love of a man, You got to get with it If you want the love of a man, Come and get it If you want the love of a man, You got to get with it Listen Remember girl, i've been around the block My legs are shied, but I won't stop It's your turn to make a choice Don't just sit there girl Stand up to raise your voice If you want the love of a man, Come and get it If you want the love of a man, You got to get with it If you want the love of a man, Come and get it If you want the love of a man, You want to get with it All my love came tumbling down Quite playing games Beat around the bush All that love really needs is Just a little pitty push If you want the love of a man, Come and get it If you want the love of a man, You got to get with it If you want the love of a man, Come and get it If you want the love of a man, You want to get with it
