[Verse 1]
Here's your doctrine of love
You had to pay the price, make the sacrifice, oh-oh
Here's your doctrine of love
You had to pay your dues and room with the blues, oh baby
Here's your doctrine of love
You've had the ecstasy with the misery, woah-oh
And you know 'bout the ups and downs
[Chorus]
(Step right up) Come and get your proper's
(Step right up) You can go on your way
(Step right up) You were wise to your notions
(Step right up) And all I can say is
[Post-Chorus]
Congratulations (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
I declare that you're aware
Oh, you know it
Ooh
[Verse 2]
Here's your doctrine of love
You know just what to do, plenty kissing, too, oh-oh
Here's your doctrine of love
The four lonely walls, many DJ calls you made
Here's you doctrine of love
You now have a type whether wrong or right, woah, baby-baby
And you know 'bout the ups and downs
[Chorus]
(Step right up) Come and get your proper's
(Step right up) You can hang it on the wall
(Step right up) You were wise to your notions
(Step right up) And all I can say is
[Post-Chorus]
Congratulations (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
I declare that you're aware
Oh, you know it
Woo
[Instrumental Break]
[Pre-Chorus]
And you know 'bout the ups and downs
[Chorus]
(Step right up) Come and get your proper's
(Step right up) And you can go on your way
(Step right up) You were wise to your notions
(Step right up) And all I can say is congratulations
(Step right up) Oh-oh, congratulations
(Step right up) Oh-oh, you got the doctrine of love
(Step right up, love) Yeah, you got the doctrine of love
(Step right up, love) Woo
(Step right up, love) Oh-oh
(Step right up, love) Oh-oh
