I`ve been in love for a short time.
I had a little trouble makin` up my mind.
Somthin` got in my way, babe.
I find it really hard for me to say.
I know that my head was hot, girl.
Hot enough to hit the spot that makes you trot.
But, girl I ain`t no liar.
Gonna` set your little heart on fire. Yeah.
I`ve had my hit and miss, girl.
I`m ready now to settle right down to this.
I hope that your love is true, babe.
As true as the love I hold for you.
There`s one thing that I`d say, girl.
I love you for ever and a day.
Now, girl I ain`t no liar.
I`m gonna` set your little heart on fire. Yeah.
(CHORUS)
`Cause when I`m thinking of you.
Thinkin` about you.
My heart beats faster I`m goin` for the pastor.
I got me a love and I`m gonna` make it last, girl.
Girl.
`Cause when I think about you.
Thinkin` about you.
My heart beats faster I`m goin` for the pastor.
I got me a love and I`m gonna` make it last, girl.
Ohhhhh ...
I really think you`re brave, babe.
For cuttin` loose that bloodthirsty Dave the knave.
Now Davey, his love was strong, babe.
But, you`re better off with a love that`s long.
You never have to be alone, girl.
`Cause I`ll be there when you come back home.
Now, girl I ain`t no liar.
I`m gonna` set your little heart on fire. Ahh, ohh ...
(CHORUS)
