Well, hello baby

Come here, sit down, make yourself comfortable

Tell me something

How long have we known each other?

About ten months, huh?

Say, what's that you got on your finger?

An engagement ring?

So you and John are engaged, huh?

You know, he's a mighty lucky guy

He should be proud to have a woman like you

Listen, I got something I want to tell you

You know, and don't think I'm getting fresh or anything like that

But this thing been bugging me for a long time, you know

And it's kind of getting heavier and heavier each and every day

I just got to get it off my chest, you know

You see, I never see anyone like you

I've never known anybody like you

Let me take you back to my childhood a while

See, we had a medium-sized family, you know

We weren't rich

My mother, she tried to bring us up the best she could

Didn't commit no crime nor nothing, you know

But I had to wait until I reached manhood

To commit this crime

According to the court of love, if there is such a court

You know, you see, love is a thing that, you know

It's a bit like quicksand, you know

The more you wiggle, the deeper you sink

You know, and when it hits you, you just got to fall, you know

And that's why I do believe that I'm guilty

Guilty, guilty of loving you

Says I'm guilty of loving you
