Work with My Love

* Single
* Mark Knight Remix

"**Work with My Love**" is a song by Alok and James Arthur, released as a single on 13 January 2023. It samples the 2004 song "Lola's Theme" by The Shapeshifters, which in turn interpolates the 1982 song "What About My Love" by Johnnie Taylor.

Arthur noted about the collaboration, "As soon as I heard the iconic sample…I was in and keen to be involved in the track. Alok and I have attempted to work together previously so I'm super happy we've managed to create this massive tune." Alok stated, "I’m a big fan of James’ style and had a great time making this track with him. Hope everyone enjoys it."

**Lyrics**
[Verse 1]

Oh, my love is impossible

So hard to control

Ay-ay

And my heart is a beautiful

Kind of wrecking ball

Ay-ay

[Pre-Chorus]

I know I get a little bit crazy

Out of my head, yeah, maybe it's too much

But if you really wanna be with me

You gotta handle all that I got

[Chorus]

Can you work, work, work with my love?

(My love)

Can you work, work, work with my love?

(My love)

Can you work, work, work with my love?

[Post-Chorus]

(My love)

Can you work, work, work with my love?

(My love)

[Verse 2]

And I know it's a wild ride

But it's worth the fight (Worth the fight)

Ay-ay

And ooh, if you hold on tight

We can rule the night (Rule the night)

Ay-ay

[Pre-Chorus]

I know I get a little bit crazy

Out of my head, yeah, maybe it's too much

But if you really wanna be with me

You gotta handle all that I got

[Chorus]

Can you work, work, work with my love?

(My love)

Can you work, work, work with my love?

(My love)

Can you work with my?

Can you work, work, work with my love?

[Post-Chorus]

Can you work?

Can you work?

Can you work, yeah work, baby?

Can you work, work, work with my love?

Can you work? (My)

Can you work? (Love)

Can you work, work, work with my love?
