Lyrics

Dozens of girls would storm up
I had to lock my door
Somehow I couldn't warm up
To one before
What was it that controlled me?
What kept my love life lean?
My intuition told me
You'd come on the scene
Lady, listen to the rhythm of my heartbeat
And you'll get just what I mean
Embrace me
My sweet embraceable you
Embrace me
You irreplaceable you
Just one look at you, my heart grew tipsy in me
You and you alone bring out the gypsy in me
I love all
The many charms about you
Above all
I want my arms about you
Don't be a naughty baby
Come to papa, come to papa, do
My sweet embraceable you
Embrace me
My sweet embraceable you
Embrace me
You irreplaceable you
In your arms I find love so delectable, dear
I'm afraid it isn't quite respectable, dear
But hang it
Come on, let's glorify love
Ding dang it
You'll shout "Encore!" if I love
Don't be a naughty papa
Come to baby, come to baby, do
My sweet embraceable you
