You are so much cool one, I don't worry about a thing 
You are pushin' full of lovin' that makes my heart sing 
I know that you want me and you prove it every day 
You're the kind of girl I can find giving my birds & I say 

Said I wasn't gonna tell nobody 
Said I wasn't gonna tell a soul 
Said I wasn't gonna tell nobody 
But I, oh I, oh I, I couldn't keep it to myself 

Baby I'm so proud I'm really gonna scream out loud 
I can't hold it any longer; your love talk is getting stronger 
Just one look in your eyes can make a young man cry 
Said I couldn't advertise, but baby you apologize 

Said I wasn't gonna tell nobody 
Said I wasn't gonna tell a soul 
Said I wasn't gonna tell nobody 
But I, oh I, oh I, I couldn't keep it to myself 

Look, your love is harder than the hardest rock 
Ooo it's shocking like electric wire, yeah yeah 

Said I wasn't gonna tell nobody 
Said I wasn't gonna tell a soul 
Said I wasn't gonna tell nobody 
But I, oh I, oh I, I couldn't keep it to myself ...
