[Verse 1]
(Hey there)
(Little girl)
(Don't you know you got my head in a whirl)
One kiss from you would be
So good, real good
[Chorus]
Little girl, don’t stay away from me
I wanna love you, woman
Like a good man should
[Verse 2]
One will
Find me
To know you're gonna walk my way
Who can make love a reality?
Too good, I could and you could
[Chorus]
Little girl, don't stay away from me
I wanna love you, woman
Like a good man should
[Verse 3]
(Ooo wee)
(On a shelf)
I wouldn’t stop trying for a million months
Love from you would fill my heart with glee
Sure would, really would
[Chorus]
Little girl, don't stay away from me
I wanna love you, woman
Like a good man should
[Break]
(Good)
(Good)
[Verse 3]
Come on
Why wait
Little girl, why do you hesitate?
We could be in love for eternity
Sure could, really could
[Chorus]
Littlе girl, don't stay away from me
I wanna love you, woman
Like a good man should
[Outro]
Hеy there
Little girl
I wanna love you, woman
Like a good man should
Ooo wee
Aah shucks
I wanna love you, woman
Like a good man should
Come on
Why wait
I wanna love you, woman
Like a good man should
(Hey there)
(Little girl)
(Don't you know you got my head in a whirl)
One kiss from you would be
So good, real good
[Chorus]
Little girl, don’t stay away from me
I wanna love you, woman
Like a good man should
[Verse 2]
One will
Find me
To know you're gonna walk my way
Who can make love a reality?
Too good, I could and you could
