Lyrics

No one in this world will ever take your place
Even tho’ you lead my heart a merry chase
And all the while you’re innocently playing
Within a smile, my lonely heart keeps saying

Chorus
Cherry, Cherry, ain’t it a shame
That you can’t be sweet as your name
Always flirtin’, havin’ your fun
Never certain if I’m “the one”
But if I am, I’ll hang aroun’
Till you grow up and settle down
But will ya, while your heart’s on a spree
Cherry, save your loving for me
