Song Lyrics

I'm in the mood
I'm in the mood for love, yes, I am
I'm in the mood
I'm in the mood for love

I'm in the mood, in the mood
I'm in the mood for love, Lord, Lord

Hooked on you, I say, hey
Night time is the right time, be with the one you love
But night, night come, baby
You're so far away, away, away

I'm in the mood for love, Lord, Lord
I'm in the mood, in the mood, mood
I'm in the mood for love
I'm in the mood

I'm in the mood, oh Lord
I'm in the mood for love

Bonnie Raitt, yeah, yes
My daddy told me
(I know he did)
Leave that man alone
Yes, he did

But my daddy didn't tell me, Lord
What that man was puttin' down
(Hm, puttin' down, down, down, down,down)
In the mood, baby
(No, he didn't)
I'm in the mood for some of your love
(Baby)

I'm in the mood
I'm in the mood for love
(Oh, love, ah)
All right, John Lee, play it, play it, play it, baby
(Yeah)
Lord, love you, Bonnie Raitt

I don't want be with no, no, no, one else
I can't get my thrill, babe, hon', unless I be with you, you, you
'Cause night, night time is right time
Oh, Lord, oh, Lord, to be with the one you love

I'm in the mood, in the mood, baby
Oh, Lord, I'm in a mood for love
Lord, have mercy on me
Have mercy on me, on me, on me

Ha, have mercy on me, on me, on me, on me
Lord, Lord, I'm in the mood for you, babe, the mood for you, babe
And now, now, Bonnie, now Bonnie, now Bonnie
What can I do, what can I do, baby?
(Hm, hm)

I, I love you, I love you, I love you, you
(Hm, hm, I hear you knock)
I love you, I love you, Bonnie
What can I do, what can I do?
(Hm, hm, hm, I hear you call)

I'm in the mood
Some of your love, some of your love, ha
(I'm in the mood)
Some of your love, some of your love
(I'm comin' on)
I'm in the mood, hm

I'm in the mood, baby, yeah
(Ha, ha, ha)
I'm in a mood for some love
(No, no)
