(Keep pumpin', blowin'; keep pumpin', blowin')

Hey it's an old wives' story
Said it's old wives' tale.
I said love is glory
I tell you love's so frail.
Loving needs a bandage
And intensive care
And it's a disadvantage
When you're playin' fair

If you're treading water and romance is on the slide
Don't you know you have to swallow something more than water
It's your pride

Chorus:
Ah-huh, I've huffed and puffed
Just to keep love going.
I'm done I've had enough
A pumpin' and a blowin'

(Keep pumpin', blowin'; keep pumpin', blowin')

You know a woman's labor
Is never ever done.
So could you do me a favor
And father tell your son

If he's treading water and romance is on the slide
Don't you know you have to swallow something more than water;
It's your pride.

Chorus (x2)

(Keep pumpin', blowin'; keep pumpin', blowin')
