The Way I Walk
Robert Gordon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The way I walk is just the way I walk
The way I talk is just the way I talk
The way I smile is just the way I smile
Touch me baby and I'll go hog-wild

The way I love is just the way I love
C'mon and be my little turtle dove
Touch me baby, feels so good
I feel as though I wanna
Then I don't know if I should

Do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wah
Call me please, yip-yip-yip
Do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wah

Just a little more
Do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wah
Yip-yip-yip, that's about right
Aah-aaaah, now talk to me

The way you love me 's got to suit my style
Or little baby I will say goodbye
Love me baby, love me right
Love me morning, noon and night

Do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wah
Yip-yip-yip
Do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wah
Yeah, yip-yip-yip

Do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wah
Aha, do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wah

Aah-aaaah-aah

Do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wah
Yip-yip-yip
Do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wah
Yip-yip-yip

Do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wah
Yip-yip-yip, yeah
Do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wee-do-wah





Aah-aaaah-aah
