Cm D# Cm D#
Down with the dc Talk, d- d- down with the dc Talk
Cm D# Cm D#
Are you down with the dc Talk, d- d- down with the dc Talk
[Verse 1]
Cm A#
Pullin' out my big black book
Cm A#
Cause when I need a word defined that's where I look
Cm A#
So I move to the L's quick, fast, in a hurry
Cm A#
Threw on my specs, thought my vision was blurry
Cm A#
I looked again but to my dismay
Cm A#
It was black and white with no room for grey
Cm A#
Ya see, a big "V" stood beyond my word
Cm A#
And yo that's when it hit me, that luv is a verb
[Chorus 1]
Cm D#
Words come easy but don't mean much
Cm D#
When the words they're sayin' we can't put trust in
Cm D#
We're talkin' 'bout love in a different light
Cm D#
And if we all learn to love it would be just right
[Chorus 2]
F
Hey, tell me haven't ya heard?
F
Luv, is a serious word
G#
Hey, I think it's time ya learned
Cm
I don't care what they say
A#
I don't care care what ya heard
F
The word luv, luv is a verb
[Outro]

[Verse 2]
Cm A#
Thinkin' of a way to explain-o
Cm A#
Cause ya' know when I'm flowin' like a bottle of Drain-o
Cm A#
Simple and plain, L-O-V-F
Cm A#
Ain't all that junk that ya see on TV
Cm A#
Put soaps on a rope cause they ain't worth copin' with
Cm A#
It's a myth that there ain't no hope and
Cm A#
Luv is enough if it's unconditionally
Cm A#
Givin' now you're living out the Great Commission
[Chorus 1]
Cm D#
Words come easy but don't mean much
Cm D#
When the words they're sayin' we can't put trust in

And if we all learn to love it would be just right
[Chorus 2]

[Verse 3]
Cm D#
Back in the day there was a man
Cm D#
Who stepped out of Heaven and he walked the land
Cm D#
He delivered to the people an eternal choice
Cm D#
With a heart full of luv and the truth in His voice
Cm D#
Gave up His life so that we may live
Cm D#
How much more luv could the Son of God give?
Cm D#
Here is the example that we oughtta be matchin'
Cm D#
Cause luv is a word that requires some action
[Chorus 1]
Cm D#
Words come easy but don't mean much
Cm D#
When the words they're sayin' we can't put trust in
Cm D#
We're talkin' 'bout love in a different light
Cm D#
And if we all learn to love it would be just right
[Chorus 2]
