(C7)Back stroke lov er al ways hid in’ ’neath the cov ers ’til I talked to your dad dy, he say;

he said, “You ain’t seen noth in’ ’til you’re down on a muf fin, then you’re sure to be was chang ing your ways.”

I meet a cheer school lead er, was a real it young a bleed er; oh, the times I could rem i I nisce,

’cause the best things of lov in’ with her sis ter and her cous in on ly start ed with a lit tle kiss, (G5)like (A5)this:

(C7)See saw swing er with the boys in the school and your feet fly in’ up in the air,

sing ing, “Hey, did dle, did dle,” with your kit ty in the mid dle of the swing like you did n’t care.

So I took a big chance at the high school dance with a miss y who was read y to play.

Was n’t me she was fool in’, ’cause she knew what she was do in’ and I knowed love was here to stay (G5)when she (A5)told me to (Cm6)walk this way,
