Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Baby, here I am

I'm a man on the scene

I can give you what you want

But you gotta come home with me

I've got some good old lovin'

And I got some more in store

When I get through throwin' it on you

You gotta come back for more

[Chorus]

Boys and things that come by the dozen

That ain't nothin' but drug store lovin'

Hey, little thing, let me light your candle

'Cause, mama, I'm sure hard to handle now

Yes, sir, I'm

[Verse 2]

Action speaks louder than words

And I'm a man of great experience

I know you got another man

But I can love you better than him

Take my hand, don't be afraid

I'm gonna prove every word I say

I'm advertising love for free

So you can place your ad with me

[Chorus]

Boys will come along, a dime by the dozen

That ain't nothing but ten cent lovin'

Hey, little thing, let me light your candle

'Cause, mama, I'm sure hard to handle now

Yes, sir, I'm

[Bridge]

Yeah

Hard to handle now

Oh, baby

[Verse 3]

Baby, here I am

I'm a man on your scene

I can give you what you want

But you gotta come home with me

I've got some good old lovin'

And I got some more in store

When I get through throwin' on you

You gotta come runnin' back for more

[Chorus]

Boys will run along, a dime by the dozen

That ain't nothin' but drug store lovin'

Hey, little thing, let me light your candle

'Cause, mama, I'm sure hard to handle now

Yes, sir, I'm

[Bridge]

Hard

Hard to handle now

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]

Boys will run along, a dime by the dozen

That ain't nothing but ten cent lovin'

Hey, little babe, let me light your candle

'Cause, mama, I'm sure hard to handle now

Yes, sir, I'm

[Outro]

Yeah, so hard to handle now

Oh, yeah

Baby, good lovin'

Baby, baby, oh-oh, good lovin'

I need good lovin'

I got to have it, oh, yeah

Oh, so hard now, yeah

Mmm-mmm
