Lyrics

I got a lit tle change in my pock et go ing jin gle in gle in gle, want to call you on the tel e phone, ba by.

I’ll give you a ring.

But (D5)each time we talk, I get the same old thing, al ways no (A5)hug ging, no kiss ing un til I get a wed ding ring.

My (E5)hon ey, my ba by, don’t put my love up on no shelf.

She said, “Don’t (A5)give me no lines, and keep your hands to your self.”

Cruel ba by, ba by, ba by, why you want to treat me this way?

You know I’m still your lov er boy, I still feel the same way.

That’s when she told me a sto ry ’bout free milk and a cow, and said no (A)hug ging, no kiss ing un til I get a wed ding vow.

My (E)hon ey, my ba by, don’t put my love up on no shelf.

She said, “Don’t (A)hand me no lines, and keep your hands to your self.”

See, I (A5)want ed her real bad and I was a bout to give in, a that’s when she start ed talk ing a bout true love, start ed talk ing a bout sin.

And I said, (D)“Hon ey, I’ll live with you for the rest of my life.” She said, “No (A)hug ging, no kiss ing un til you make me your wife.” My (E)hon ey, my ba by, don’t put my love up on no shelf.

She said, “Don’t (A)hand me no lines, and keep your hands to your self.”
