Lyrics

If you want my lovin

If you really do

Don`t be afra-aid bab-ay

Just ask me

Ya know I`m gonna give it to you

Oh and I do declare (I do)

I Wanna see you with it

Stretch out your arms little boy

Your gonna get it

Cause I love you-oo

(Baby, baby, baby I love you)

There ain`t no doubt about it

Baby I lo-ove 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- runnin, I ain`t lyin

(I ain`t lyin)

And Ooooh what you want`

Little boy you know you got it

I`d deny my own self

Before I see you without it

Cause I love you

(Baby, baby, baby I love you)

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

Someday ya might wanna run away

And leave me sittin here to cry

But if it`s all the same to ya baby

I`m gonna stop ya from sayin goodbye

(Goodbye)

Baby I love ya (baby, baby, I love ya)

Baby I need ya (baby, baby I need ya)

Said I want ya (baby baby I want ya)

Got ta have ya (baby baby I love ya)

Don`t let your neighbors tell ya I don`t want ya

(Baby, baby I want ya)

FADES-

Don`t let your lowdown friends

(Baby, baby I want ya)

Say I don`t need ya

(Baby, baby I need ya)

Uh-huh baby I love ya...
