Pretty baby
Would you ride with me tonight
Pretty pretty pretty pretty baby
Would you groove with me tonight
Won't you groove with me baby
While the moon is shining bright

Would you groove with me baby
While the moon is shining bright

Pretty baby
Now don't you like my mobile

Now don't you like my automobile
Won't you groove with me baby
You don't know how it makes me feel
