{Intro}
Ah

[Verse 1]
She sits alone waiting for suggestions
He's so nervous avoiding all the questions
His lips are dry, her heart's gently pounding
Don't you just know exactly what they're saying

[Chorus]
If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
Come on‚ sugar‚ tell me so
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
Come on‚ sugar, tell me so

[Verse 2]
He's acting shy looking for an answer
Come on, honey‚ let's spend the night together
Now hold on a minute before we go much further
Give me a dime so I can phone my mother
They catch a cab to his high rise apartment
At last he can tell her exactly what his heart meant

[Chorus]
If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
Come on, sugar, tell me so
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
Come on‚ sugar, tell me so

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
His heart's beating like a drum
'Cause at last he's got this girl home
Relax, baby, now we are all alone
Ow!

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
They wake at dawn 'cause all the birds are singing
Two total strangers but that ain't what they're thinking
Outside it's cold, misty and it's raining
They got each other, and neither one's complaining
He says, "I'm sorry but I'm out of milk and coffee"
"Never mind, my sugar, we can watch the early movie"

[Chorus]
If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
Come on, sugar, tell me so
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
Come on, sugar, tell me so

[Outro]
Aw yeah
Oh
Shooby dooby doo
Shooby dooby doo
Shooby dooby doo
