Did It For Love

I had some words with her old manWhen I asked him for her hand'Cause eye to eye, you know, we never could seeNow we're off and we're on our ownAs we head in to the danger zoneTo find a little pink house for her and mechorusWe did it for loveWe did it for satisfactionIt was the rage of the age and the hour of the main attractionWe finally said, enough is enoughWe played it by ear, it came from the heartWe did it for loveNow Mary Beth is doin' all she canShe had her child without her manShe never cared to hear what the town folk would sayThey tried to talk her out of keepin' that boyBut in this world she's found no greater joyNow she's a proud mamaWatchin' the little man playchorusShe did it for loveShe did it for satisfactionIt was the rage of the age and the hour of the main attractionShe finally said, enough is enoughShe played it by ear, it came from the heartShe did it for loveMy brother fought in the Vietnam warHe left his job and his family choresI never understood when he said he couldn't let it beNow it's been twenty years or soHe still talks about how regular joes were somethin' manDefendin' the land of the freechorusThey did it for lovethey did it for satisfactionIt was the rage of the age and the hour of the main attractionThey finally said, enough is enoughThey played it by ear, it came from the heartThey did it for lovechorusWe did it for loveWe did it for satisfactionIt was the rage of the age and the hour of the main attractionWe finally said, enough is enoughWe played it by ear, it came from the heartWe did it for love
