My Little Lady
Bloodstone Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[CHORUS]
She's my little lady
She keeps me together
Makes me do right
When I'm doing wrong
She's my little lady
She keeps me together
Makes me feel better
When I'm feeling sad

I feel so good around her
Oh, love, I'm glad I found her
She's been so good to me
I'll never set her free

Whenever we are alone
She knows how to turn me on
How could I help but love her
How could I help but love

[Repeat CHORUS]

Sometimes when I'm not around
Other fellows try to shoot me down
She don't hear a word they say
She tells them to go away

Whenever we have a date
All she says is don't be late
How could I help but love her
How could I help but love

[Repeat CHORUS]

She's my little lady





[Repeat CHORUS]
