[Intro]
Baby, baby, sign my contract on love
Baby, baby, sign my contract on love
Baby, baby, sign my contract on love
Baby, baby, sign it
Sign it, sing it, sing it
[Verse 1]
You say you love me
And I believe it's true
But before I let myself go
Here's what you've got to do
[Chorus]
(Sign it, sign it, sign it, sign it)
You've got to sign
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
My contract on love
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
Write it in your heart
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
That you'll never do anything
To ever make us part
(Sign it, sign it, sign it, sign it)
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I know it may seem strange to you
Yeah, but I've lost a love so many times before
Yeah, and now that I know the score
No one's gonna hurt me no more
And I'm taking all my chances with romances
[Chorus]
(Sign it, sign it, sign it, sign it)
You've got to sign
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
My contract on love
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
Write it in your heart
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
That you'll never do anything
To ever make us part
(Sign it, sign it, sign it, sign it)
(Sign it, sign it, sign it, sign it)
You've got to sign
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
My contract on love
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
Write it in your heart
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
That you'll never do anything
To ever make us part
(Sign it, sign it, sign it, sign it)
(Sign it, sign it, sign it, sign it)
You've got to sign
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
My contract on love
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
Write it in your heart
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
That you'll never do anything
To ever make us part
(Sign it, sign it, sign it, sign it)
Baby, baby, sign my contract on love
Baby, baby, sign my contract on love
Baby, baby, sign my contract on love
Baby, baby, sign it
Sign it, sing it, sing it
[Verse 1]
You say you love me
And I believe it's true
But before I let myself go
Here's what you've got to do
[Chorus]
(Sign it, sign it, sign it, sign it)
You've got to sign
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
My contract on love
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
Write it in your heart
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
That you'll never do anything
To ever make us part
(Sign it, sign it, sign it, sign it)
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I know it may seem strange to you
Yeah, but I've lost a love so many times before
Yeah, and now that I know the score
No one's gonna hurt me no more
And I'm taking all my chances with romances
[Chorus]
(Sign it, sign it, sign it, sign it)
You've got to sign
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
My contract on love
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
Write it in your heart
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
That you'll never do anything
To ever make us part
(Sign it, sign it, sign it, sign it)
(Sign it, sign it, sign it, sign it)
You've got to sign
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
My contract on love
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
Write it in your heart
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
That you'll never do anything
To ever make us part
(Sign it, sign it, sign it, sign it)
(Sign it, sign it, sign it, sign it)
You've got to sign
(You, you, you'd better sign it)
My contract on love
