'Call It Love'
I'm damn sure I love you
I'm damned if I know why
It feels just like I know you
I can't break this tie
Some folks cling to money
N' some don't have a dime
But me, I got you honey
You're all mine, you're all mine
Well I'm read up on Shakespeare
Thou art my savin' grace
Shame that you don't come here
To lie about the place
Well I'd sure make it pretty
With roses round the door
So here's the nitty gritty
I'm all yours, I'm all yours
I'm up from the country
But you, you're from the south
I'm thick set n' chunky
N' loose about the mouth
Times keep on a rollin'
N' still you won't give up
Well here's the cards I'm holdin'
Call it love
Well I'm damn sure you need me
But you don't know it yet
It don't cost much to feed me
Cos I'll take what I can get
Yeah you don't have to worry
Just lie there lookin' cool
No jaws to break, no hurry
I'm your fool, I'm your fool
No I ain't no moanin' Lisa
No I ain't no Billy Jean
And my love's gotten sweeter
With the heartbreak in between
Some girls want the dancin'
N' some just want the ring
Some rock n' roll romancin'
I want everything, everything
I'm backed up on bourbon
You don't touch a drop
Yeah your ugliness is urban
N' I'm pretty as a rock
Well you're crawlin' like a spider
Underneath that stone
But I'm sure gonna find yah
N' take you home, take you home!
