| Love you, daddy, and I know you know,
|
| you got a good thing going, papa, don’t let go
|
| 'cause there are 97 men in this here town
|
| would give a half a grand in silver just to follow me down
|
| so appreciate a dedicated baby,
|
| 'cause boy, you are a lucky man
|
| I’ll take you down by the river where the catfish play
|
| bed around, baby, gonna kick all day
|
| no need to wander, no need to roam
|
| you got a full meal cooking, honey, here at home
|
| so appreciate a dedicated baby,
|
| 'cause boy, you are a lucky man
|
| Say I’m confused, say I’m perplexed
|
| one fellow told me I was oversexed
|
| don’t you believe it, 'cause it just ain’t true
|
| you know it’s just 'cause I got a little crush on you
|
| So before you turn your back on me
|
| to take a look at all the other fishes in the sea
|
| remember a plenty good woman is hard to find
|
| and I’m the hootchi kootchie lovey doving kind
|
| so appreciate a dedicated baby,
|
| 'cause boy, you are a lucky man
|
| Don’t call me honey when your mother’s around
|
| boy, you know you’re gonna drive her wild
|
| Don’t call me honey when your mother’s around
|
| boy, you never again may smile
|
| listen to me, hear my song
|
| she’s afraid I’m gonna lead her little boy wrong
|
| Don’t call me honey when your mother’s around
|
| boy, you know you’re gonna drive her wild
|
| Don’t call me honey when your mother’s around
|
| boy, you know you’re gonna weep and wail
|
| Don’t call me honey when your mother’s around
|
| boy, you’re gonna land us both in jail
|
| I’ll never know why she don’t dig me
|
| she says I’m leading a minor to delinquency
|
| Don’t call me honey when your mother’s around
|
| boy, you know you’re gonna drive her wild
|
| now baby stop winking 'cross the supper table
|
| I’m afraid your papa’s gonna see
|
| now baby stop winking 'cross the supper table
|
| I already know you got eyes for me
|
| You know put them up everytime we touch
|
| They just don’t dig that I should love you so much
|
| Don’t call me honey when your mother’s around
|
| boy, you know you’re gonna drive her wild
|
| Remember 97 men in this here town
|
| would give a half a grand in silver just to follow me down
|
| so appreciate a dedicated baby,
|
| 'cause boy, you are a lucky man
|
| Boy, you are a lucky man |
