At seventeen we fell in love
We took the vows of man and wife
I remember how we made our way
A little patience, the time we pray
Can't imagine that this love is through
Feelin' the pain, girl when you lose
Oh it's too hot, too hot, lady
It's too hot, too hot, lady
So long ago you were my love, oh my love
Flyin' high we never took the time
To stop and feel the need
Funny how those years go by
Changing you, changing me
In our hearts, girl and in our minds
Can't imagine that this love is through
Feelin' the pain, girl when you lose
Oh it's too hot, too hot, lady
It's too hot, too hot, lady
What a mess that we've made
So long ago you were my love
Oh, it's too hot, too hot, lady
It's too hot, too hot, lady
From this mess that we've made
It's too hot, too hot, lady
It's too hot, so so hot, lady
Oh gotta cool this mess we've made
I just can't take it, I can't stand no more baby
Of man and wife, forever, woah
Baby, please won't you listen
It hurt me so bad, well I know I've got to leave
It's too hot, gotta run for shelter babe, gotta run for shade
It's too hot, it's so so hot baby
Gotta cool this anger, gotta cool this mess we've made
It's so warm, so warm, it's hot baby, yeah
