Joss Stone and Patti LaBelle Lyrics
"Stir It Up"

[Patti]
I can't sit here while I go nowhere
Chase my dreams through the polluted air
[Joss]
Walking on a wire, running out of time
[Both]
There's no room in this ol' heart of mine
[Patti]
Bill collectors waiting down the hall
Neighbors scream and crack the bedroom wall
[Joss]
Nerves jump off the pavement, passion hits the street
[Both]
Angels cookin' in the city heat
[Joss]
World's too crazy, I can't take no more
[Patti]
I won't stay here locked behind the door

[Both]
Baby, stir it up, got to break it up now
When I think about tomorrow, ooh, I can't wait to
Stir it, got to shake it up now
If I have to beg or borrow, I'm not gonna take it anymore, mmm, mmm

[Patti]
Hungry minds do stare you in the eyes
Spread it thick and lay the biggest lies
[Joss]
Don't say what you feel, must play hard to get
All those time bombs tickin' in your head
[Both]
So much pressure to keep holdin' on
[Patti]
Pack my clothes up, baby, I'll be gone

[Both]
I've got to stir it up, got to break it up now
When I think about tomorrow, ooh, I can't wait to
Stir it, got to shake it up now
If I have to beg or borrow, I'm not gonna take it anymore, mmm, mmm

[Patti]
Can't find love because it's trapped inside
[Joss]
Can't find freedom 'cause it's hard to find
[Patti]
Why don't you make some room in this ol' heart of mine
[Joss
So much pressure to keep holdin' on
[Patti]
Pack my clothes up, baby, I'll be gone

[Both]
Stir it up, I've got to break it up now
When I think about tomorrow, I can't wait to
Stir it, got to shake it up now
If I have to beg or borrow, I don't wanna take it anymore
Stir it up, got to break it up now
When I think about tomorrow, I can't wait to
Stir it, got to shake it up now
If I have to beg or borrow, I don't wanna take it anymore

Baby, there is so much pressure to keep me holdin' on
Got to pack up my clothes and, baby, I'll be gone
Stir it up, got to break it up now
When I think about tomorrow, I can't wait to
Stir it, got to shake it up now
If I have to beg or borrow, I don't wanna take it no more
Stir it up, got to break it up now
I'm gonna stir it up, gonna stir it up
I'm not gonna take it no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more
