[Verse 1]
Oh, well, now you're the girl I'm simply mad about
Oh yes, I'm really glad
It's been me. Oh yeah
I hope that you've been getting ready
'Cause I'm gonna to ask you to go steady
With me
I got two eyes that happened by you
And when they saw you, they said they knew you were fine
I got two lips that long to kiss you
And when they speak, they say they wish you were mine
[Chorus]
Hey, sweet baby
Oh don't you know
That I am yours
From head to toe
[Verse 2]
Oh, I got a little heart inside me beating
And when it speaks it keeps repeating
Your name all the time
You better watch out 'cause of what I'm saying
'Cause baby, don't you know that I ain't playing
A game?
[Chorus]
Hey, sweet baby
Oh don't you know?
That I am yours
From head to toe
All the way down
From the top to the ground
Sweet baby, sweet baby
[Verse 3]
Oh, I got two legs and I got two feet
That always take me to your street
Everyday, all the time
No matter which way I try to go
My legs and my feet they seem to know
The way
[Chorus]
Hey-hey, sweet baby
Oh don't you know
That I am yours
From head to toe
All the way down
From the top to the ground
Hey, sweet baby
Yeah, I am yours from head to toe
Sweet baby
Oh, well, now you're the girl I'm simply mad about
Oh yes, I'm really glad
It's been me. Oh yeah
I hope that you've been getting ready
'Cause I'm gonna to ask you to go steady
With me
I got two eyes that happened by you
And when they saw you, they said they knew you were fine
I got two lips that long to kiss you
And when they speak, they say they wish you were mine
[Chorus]
Hey, sweet baby
Oh don't you know
That I am yours
From head to toe
[Verse 2]
Oh, I got a little heart inside me beating
And when it speaks it keeps repeating
Your name all the time
You better watch out 'cause of what I'm saying
'Cause baby, don't you know that I ain't playing
A game?
[Chorus]
Hey, sweet baby
Oh don't you know?
That I am yours
From head to toe
All the way down
From the top to the ground
Sweet baby, sweet baby
[Verse 3]
Oh, I got two legs and I got two feet
That always take me to your street
Everyday, all the time
No matter which way I try to go
My legs and my feet they seem to know

Hey-hey, sweet baby
Oh don't you know
That I am yours
From head to toe
All the way down
From the top to the ground
Hey, sweet baby
Yeah, I am yours from head to toe
Sweet baby
