Da Ya Think I'm Sexy
Red Stewart Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She sits alone waiting for suggestions
He's so nervous, avoiding all the questions
His lips are dry, her heart is gently pounding
Don't you just know exactly what they're thinking?

If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
Come on sugar let me know
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
Come on honey tell me so, tell me so baby

He's acting shy looking for an answer
Come on honey let's spend the night together
Now hold on a minute before we go much further
Give me a dime so I can phone my mother
They catch a cab to his high rise apartment
At last he can tell her exactly what his heart meant

If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
Come on honey tell me so
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
Come on sugar let me know

His heart's beating like a drum
'Cos at last he's got this girl home
Relax baby, now we are all alone

They wake at dawn 'cos all the birds are singing
Two total strangers but that ain't what they're thinking
Outside it's cold, misty and it's raining
They got each other, neither one's complaining
He says, "I'm sorry but I'm out of milk and coffee"
Never mind sugar, we can watch the early movie

If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
Come on sugar let me know




If you really need me just reach out and touch me
Come on honey tell me so

Sugar, sugar...
She sits alone waiting for suggestions

Just reach out and touch me
Come on, honey, tell me so
Tell me so, babe

Come on honey, let's spend the night together
Now hold on a minute before we go much further

"Never mind sugar we can watch the early movie"

If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
Come on sugar, let me know
If you really need me
