My lover waits for me
And there she'll be
Around the town
And there I'll stand
Her lovin' man
And 'til the day I die
Never make me cry
Yeah
Around the town
And my love waits for me
And there she'll be
Around the town
Baby can ya hear me
Always want you near me
Around the town
Come on baby
I don; t mean maybe
Around the town

The chorus of the song is particularly effective in showing the singer's affection for his lover. He repeats the line "Around the town" several times, creating a sense of rhythm and a catchy hook.
