Shalamar - Take That To The Bank Lyrics






Take that to the bank
Take that to the bank

A long time we stayed together
Been through the roughest weather, you and I
Still rich with love
We never had to borrow
And baby, only we know why

I'm so glad I saved my love for you
And I did what I had to do
I invested my heart so free
For what you gave me

Open your account to me
'Cause I'll give you security, my love
Take that to the bank
My interest is strong
I got a love you can count on, baby love
Take that to the bank

Best believe I shopped around
Good insurance you have found in me
Don't you worry
No one can steal my heart
Our contract can't be torn apart
That easily

'Cause we build a strong love affair
On investments of equal share
Two hearts that beat as one
Just look what love has done

Dime in the socket
Just like money in my pocket, baby love
Take that to the bank
I know how to treat a man
With me you're in good hands, baby love
Take that to the bank

Keep savin', keep buildin' (Baby)
That interest for our love
Take that to the bank
Keep savin', keep buildin' (Sugar)
That interest for our love
Take that to the bank

(Huh) Save on love
Save it for me, baby
(Huh) Save on love, yeah

Take that to the bank
Take that to the bank

Keep savin', keep buildin'
That interest for our love (Love)
Take that to the bank
Keep savin', keep buildin'
That interest for our love (Love)
Take that to the bank

Open your account to me
?Cause I'll give you security, my love
Take that to the bank
My interest is strong
I got a love you can count on, baby love
Take that to the bank

    My best shalamar song, point blank.

  47. M.... ....

    It does not get better. Stunning even more than 40 years on.

  48. Y.... ....

    I saw them live back in 80 or 81. I can't remember. I remember it was at the Limelight in Ft. Hallandale, Florida. Great show and great dancing going on at that time in the club.

  49. n.... ....

    Lush orchestral arrangements, an undercurrent of a Latin music vibe, stellar vocals, top notch production - this is Disco music at its best. Critics often berated the Disco genre for being too simplistic, but you can't deny the fact that all these cats were talented to the max!

    n.... ....

    noname YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT THE PUT AN EFFORT INTO IT I KNOW I USED TO PLAY AND AS LONG AS YOU SEE PEOPLE HAVING A GOOD TIME THE APLAUSE IS BETTER THAN THE PAY👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤝🤝🤝🤝🙏😉🚶‍♂️💃🙋‍♂️

    n.... ....

    @Carlos Vazquez Here's a little factoid. When KISS tried to jump on the Disco bandwagon and released I Was Made For Loving You in 1979, they procured studio drummer/musician Anton Fig (David Letterman show) to play the drum part. Peter Criss from KISS didn't have what it took to play a solid back beat for their Disco song. A lot of disco musicians were schooled in jazz and studio music disciplines.

  50. K.... A....

    Too FUNKY

  51. E.... p....

    Gerald Brown screwed up he should've stayed

  52. C.... M....
