Johnnie Taylor – Steal Away lyrics
Don't you wanna steal it (steal it)
I wanna steal it (steal it)
Let me see you steal it (steal it)

I've got to see you somehow
Not tomorrow, right now
I know it's late, I can't wait
Come on, steal away
Won't you let me steal it

Don't wanna start thinking
I might change my mind
Everybody's sleeping
Let's not waste any time
I know it's late, I can't wait
Girl, you got to wanna steal it

I know it's wrong
Meeting you this way
There's no other way
That I can be with you

If only your folks
Would approve
Things like this, you and I
Wouldn't have to do, no, no

Steal it, lord, have mercy
I got to steal it
Soembody out there
They wanna steal it
They wanna steal it

I know it's late, I can't wait
Won't you help me steal it

I know it's wrong
Meeting you this way
There's no other way
That I can be with you

If only, if only, if only
Your folks would approve
Things like this, we
Wouldn't have to do, no

I won't tell
I won't tell nobody else
I'm gonna keep it to myself

I know it's late
Don't you hesitate
Come on and steal away
Let me steal your love

??? Trying to criticize me
But you would be doing
The same thing that I'm doing

Everybody wanna steal away
Lord, please don't criticize me
I'm trying to steal a little love
Don't you want to steal away

Don't you want to steal away
Don't you want to steal away
