Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was in love with you baby, honey, before I learned to call your name
Yes, I was in love with you baby, honey, before I learned to call your name
Yeah, the way you treatin' me baby, honey you're gonna drive old me insane

Yes, you know I love you, I'll do anything you tell me to
Yes, you know I love you baby, and I'll do anything you tell me to
Well, there's nothing in this world baby, honey, that I wouldn't do for you
Well, if you love me baby, honey, do everything I say
Yes, if you love me baby, honey, do everything I say
Yes, if you don't do what I tell you, you better get on your knees and pray

Well, I want you to be my girlfriend, baby, and I'm gonna be your boy




Yes, be my girlfriend, honey, baby and I'm gonna be your boy
Yes, I'm gonna buy you a Cadillac car, to drive wherever you are
