Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
- I must confess that I like you
But there is something amiss
Tell me did it ever strike you
That a maid likes a man to steal a kiss
Now please don’t think me bold
And please, oh please don’t scold
Chorus
Just simply hold me
Fold me right in your arms
It’s your affection I crave
Tease me, squeeze me tight in your arms
Until I promise to behave
Fill me, thrill me with tales of love
And all its sweet myrtic charms
Then enfold me, please don’t scold me
Just hold me tight in your arms
- Some girlies just love to motor
Some crave a musical show
Some girls love to Fox-Trot nightly
I know some who are always on the go
But here’s what I like best
I’m diff’rent from the rest
