Listen to me baby, you gotta understand
You're old enough to know the makings of [Eb] a man
[Eb] Listen to me baby, it's hard to [Ab] settle down
[Eb] Am I asking too much for you to stick around?
[C] Every boy [Dm] wants a girl
He [G] can trust to [C] the very end
Baby, [Dm] that's you, [G] won't you wait?
[C] But to know them when I see your lips
Baby, to be kissed
I can't stop
[Fm]
[Gm] [C]
[Fm]
[Gm] [C]
[Eb] Nature's taking over my one-track mind
Believe it or not, you're in my heart all the time
All the girls are saying that you'll end up a fool
For the time being, baby, live by [Ab] my rules
[C] When I [Dm] settle down
I [G] want one [C] baby on my mind
Forgive and [Dm] forget
[G] And I'll make up [C] for all lost time
If she's put together fine, if she's reading my mind
I can't stop
I
[Fm] did it, I
[Gm] [C]
[Fm] did it, I [Gm] did it again
[C]
[Eb]
I
[Fm] did it, I did [Gm] it, I [C]
[Fm] did it again
[Gm] [C]
There's a chapel in the pines
[G] Waiting for us [C] around the bend
Keep turning your mind low [G] forever
[C] But till then
If she gives me a sign that she wants to make time
I can't stop
I
[Fm] did it
[Gm] [C]

[Gm] [Ab] [N]
