WHAT ARE WE DOIN' IN LOVE?
(Randy Goodrum)

Dottie West & Kenny Rogers - 1981



DOTTIE:
We're like summer and winter
We're not one bit alike
We're like satin and cinders
I'm definitely not your type
BOTH:
Well, then what are we doin' in love
What are we doin' in a mess like this
What are we doin' in love
DOTTIE:
Why were you someone I couldn't resist
BOTH:
What are we doin' in love

KENNY:
We're like paper and matches
DOTTIE:
We'll prob'ly have our share of fights
KENNY:
We're like roses and switches
DOTTIE:
It's gonna be hard, but we've gotta try
BOTH:
So what are we doin' in love
What are we doin' in a mess like this
What are we doin' in love
KENNY:
And what are we gonna tell all our friends

DOTTIE:
You don't have to like someone
To love someone
That rule was made to be broken
BOTH:
But if we have to say goodbye
To a life we've gotten used to
What are we doin' in love then

DOTTIE:
We're like sunup and sundown
KENNY:
People say we're never gonna to last
DOTTIE:
Like uptown and downtown
KENNY:
You like it slow, but I like it fast
BOTH:
What are we doin' in love
What are we doin' in a mess like this
What are we doin' in love
KENNY:
What are we gonna tell all our friends
BOTH:
What are we doin' love
What are we doin' in a mess like this
What are we doin' love
DOTTIE:
You were just someone I couldn't resist
BOTH:
So that's what we're doin' in love
