lyrics

V1
Little bitty baby rockin’ in the cradle,
The apple of his momma’s eye
All buttoned up and good to go
Momma's gonna treat him right

V2
Here come the King of Wall Street,
In his big black limousine
Makes a lotta money, pot full of honey,
Still he gotta find a queen

Pre-Chorus
No need to keep it secret
No need to run and hide
Take it easy it’ll come to you
With arms open wide

Chorus
You can hear it ringin’ from the valley below
To the mountains up above
It ain’t no secret people
Everybody just wants to be loved

V3
Cute little girl, tryin’ to make a livin’
Workin’ every man in sight
She throws him a look he think he got her hooked
Think he gonna take her home tonight

Chorus

Instrumental bridge

V4
Tired old man, sittin’ in the lobby
Stayin’ at the old folks home
His vision is blurred, can’t hear a word
But still he want to get it on

Pre-Chorus

Chorus
