Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Love, ooh, ooh, ooh, love is strange, mm, mm
Lots of people, oh, whoa, take it for a game
Once you get it, ooh, ooh, you never wanna quit, mm, mm
After you have had it, oh, whoa, you're in an awful fix
[Verse 2]
Your sweet loving, ooh, woo
Is better than a kiss
When you leave me, oh, whoa
Sweet kisses I miss
[Verse 3]
Hey, you sexy thing
How do you call your lover girl?
(I say, "Lover girl")
And if she doesn't answer?
(I say, "You'd better come here, lover girl")
And if she still doesn't answer
(Well, then it's)
[Verse 4]
Baby, whoa, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, you're the one
(Hmm, that oughta get her)
[Verse 5]
Tell me something
How do you call your lover boy?
(I say, "Come here, lover boy")
Whoa, but if he doesn't answer?
(I say, "Ah, come here, lover boy")
But what if he still doesn't come?
(I simply say)
[Verse 6]
Baby, mm, oh, my baby
Don't tease me like that, come here
Baby, you're the one
Now who could resist that?
[Verse 7]
Love, love, love is strange, mm, mm
Lots of people, oh, whoa, take it for a game
Baby, whoa, baby
My sweet baby, you're the one
[Verse 8]
Um, tell me, uh, when you call your lover girl
Do you ever do that growl thing?
(You mean like, "Baby"?)
Yeah, that growl thing
(My sweet baby)
Ah, that should work
[Verse 9]
Well, how do you call your lover boy?
(Oh, you know, I just do it all kinda ways)
Do you ever just let it all hang out?
(Yes, I do, and I go, "Woo, ah, baby")
("Woo, my sweet baby")
(Oh, my) Baby, you're the one
