Thompson, Richard - Read About Love Lyrics
Asked my daddy when I was thirteen
Daddy can you tell me what love really means?
His eyes went glassy, not a word was said
He poured another beer and his face turned red
Asked my mother, she acted the same
Asked my teacher, he reached for the cane
He said, don't mention that subject again
Read about love - read it in a magazine
Read about love - Cosmo and Seventeen
Read about love - in the back of a Hustler, Hustler, Hustler
So I know what makes girls sigh
And I know why girls cry
So don't tell me I don't understand
I've never been to heaven but at lest
I've read about love
My big brother told me when I was fourteen
It's time I showed you what love really means
Girls like kissing and romance too
But a boy's got to know what a man's got to do
He gave me a book, the cover was plain
Written by a doctor with a German name
It had glossy pictures, serious stuff
I read it seven times, then I knew it well enough
Read about love - now I've got you
Read about love - where I want you
Read about love - got you on the test-bed, test-bed, test-bed
So why don't you moan and sigh
Why do you sit there and cry?
I do everything I'm supposed to do
If something's wrong, then it must be you
I know the ways of a woman
I've read about love
When I touch you there it's supposed to feel nice
That's what it said in reader's advice
I've never been to heaven but at least
I've read about love

My favorite love song.
Very funny song.
Written by Errol Thompson, a recording engineer big in Reggae and such.
What are you talking about?
no harmony or tune at the beginning, moves into a really pretty song, one of his best i think.
@trekkiekid3000 i agree. (shameless plug, me and my friend covered this acoustic. poor as sin but had to be done) if you wanna see it ruined, take a peek! peace x
