Lyrics:
If you want my loving
If you really do
Don't be afraid, baby
Just ask me
You know I'm gonna give it to you

Ah, and I do declare (I do!)
I wanna see you with it
Stretch out your arms, little boy
You're gonna get it

Cause I love you
(Baby baby baby I love you)
There ain't no doubt about it
Baby I love you
(Baby baby baby I love you)
I love you, I love you,
I love you, I love you,
Baby I love you

If you feel you wanna kiss me
Go right ahead, I don't mind
All you got to do is, snap your fingers
And I'll come a running, I ain't lying
(I ain't lying!)

And oh! what you want
Little boy, you know you got it
I'll deny my own self before I'll see you without it

Cause I love you
(Baby baby baby I love you)
There ain't no doubt about it
Baby I love you
(Baby baby baby I love you)
I love you, I love you,
I love you, I love you,
Baby I love you

Some day, you might wanna run away
And leave me sitting here, cryin'
But if it's all the same to ya baby
I'll go to stop you from saying good-bye (good-bye)

Baby I love you
(Baby baby I love you)
Baby I need you
(Baby baby I love you)
I said I want ya
(Baby baby I love you)
Got to have ya baby
(Baby baby I love you)
Don't let your neigh-
(Baby baby I love you)
bors tell you I don't want ya
(Baby baby I love you)
Don't let your low-down
(Baby baby I love you)
