Tonight’s the Night Lyrics by Yo-Yo

Make Way for the Motherlode

1991

[ DD ] Check this out
I think I'm a lucky guy because this woman, I have found her
[ YY ] Ah-ha?
[ DD ] Beginnin to think of her more and more, then I grow fonder
By takin her out and showin her, this brother is like hypin
Why be freightened?
[ YY ] I'm not freightened...
[ DD ] Cause tonight is gonna be our night that we'll embrace
Face to face and make sweet love
[ YY ] Ooh, is it really sweet?
[ DD ] Well, here's a taste..
[ YY ] But wait, how do I know that you're not fooling me?
[ DD ] Who is? Relax, sweetheart, I know what I am doin
[ YY ] Okay
[ DD ] Cause I'm not a simple fella that'll tell ya
Just anything cause I mean exactly what I say
[ YY ] So if I do wait I'm really sorry for all that time it took
[ DD ] Yeah, sure
So what are you tryin to say?
[ YY ] Hey look, it's like this
[ female singer ]
Tonight is the night
That you make me a woman
You said you'll be gentle with me
And I hope you will
[ YY ] Hm, so here we have this, a intimate dinner
With me and you, and after refreshments, what will we do?
[ DD ] We'll take a stroll along the ??? of the beach
[ YY ] Ooh, and next?
[ DD ] We'll try to do the wild thing by the sea
[ YY ] Na-ah, see look, Dazzie, you act like that's all there is
[ DD ] Let's not be silly, you know I care about you
[ YY ] Really? And besides, whenever we're together you don't act right
And I'm the type of girl who likes to wait
[ DD ] Yeah, right
And I can have a girlfriend that don't share
[ YY ] Well?
[ DD ] Cause there's lots more of her
For your information panties wettin
So why hold out?
[ YY ] Cause when it comes to this I must resist
Hey look, straight up, it's like this
[ female singer ]
I'm nervous
And I'm ???
Waiting for you to walking in
I tried so hard to relax
But I..
I just can't keep still
No
[ YY ] Now first of all, we kiss and hold hands and that's all great
[ DD ] So now I guess it's time to make love?
[ YY ] Ah-ah, see now wait
See, I can't have a boyfriend that don't spend time to be with all of me
[ DD ] But I do..
[ YY ] Not the kind of star that try to try to dog me
[ DD ] No but it's not like that
See, I'm the other kind, the soft and nice type
Then I like to quickly make a moment when the mood's right
[ YY ] It's real fun, we're by ourselves when we're together
But if we wait (wait?) it'll be much better
[ DD ] Yeah, whatever..
[ YY ] So why all the rush, it doesn't matter where we do it
[ DD ] Cause you're my sweetheart and the only one I wanna groove with
[ YY ] Okay, shall we hold on or shall we let go?
Step off and go?
[ DD ] Nah, heck no
[ YY ] Why?
[ DD ] Cause you're special
[ YY ] So why all the rush to the bedroom, I really don't know you
[ DD ] Yeah, you're right, but here's the perfect time to
[ YY ] Okay, not that way, it seems that's all there is
[ DD ] But it's not true
[ YY ] So what you wanna do?
[ DD ] Look
[ female singer ]
Tonight is the night
That you make me a woman
You said you'll be gentle with me
And I hope you will
