If It's Love You Want, Baby That's Me |
If you like a guy with gold, don’t care if he’s young or old |
It’s the sense you’re barking up the wrong tree, but if you wanna get |
your kicks from the boy who knows the tricks |
If it’s love you want, baby, that’s me If you want a guy with class who’s way above the mass |
Well, I’m not the right person obviously |
But if you want to get that glow from a cat that’s in the know |
If it’s love you want, baby, that’s me So take your time and think it over, don’t do anything that’s rash |
Don’t go for a guy with flash, cause love will last longer than cash |
If you want a streamlined car or a handsome movie star |
I’m not the right type, I must agree |
But if you fell like getting sent form a truly righteous gent |
If it’s love you want, baby, that’s me Now I don’t claim to be the kind you’d love on sight |
Yet it has been done and who knows, you might |
But I’m a past master of making love with a technique all my own |
So if it’s love you want, baby, let’s go home |
When they wrote the dictionary and they wanted to know about love |
It was me that Mr. Webster and all those fellas were thinking of Cause I put the L in love and the X in ecstasy |
So if it’s love you want, baby, that’s me |
I’ve made love in San Francisco sitting on the Golden Gates |
And I’m known from coast to coast in all 48 states |
I’ve got all lovers confused tryin' to learn the methods I use |
So if it’s love you want, baby, that’s me My father was a lover way before my time |
The method he used was that old outdated kind |
The technique I use would run him right out of his mind |
So if it’s love you want, baby, that’s me So take your time and think it over |
Don’t do anything that’s rash |
Don’t go for a guy with flash, cause love will last longer than cash |
If you want a guy with class who’s way above the mass |
Well, I’m not the right person obviously |
But if you want to get that glow from a cat that’s in the know |
If it’s love you want, baby, that’s me |
