Lyrics
1. Joe, you’re a bit too slow
I told you long ago
I want a beau, you know
Who loves and adores like Romeo
I told you from the start
I’ve got a loving heart
Joe you are nice, but you are colder than ice
Love me or else we will part
Chorus:
Throw your arms around me, sweetie, hold me tight
Press me and caress me, honey, with all your might
Kiss me lovey, kiss me lovey day and night
And keep it up! keep it up! (Um Oh baby)
Give me lots of lovin’ ’cause I need it bad
Want the kind of lovin’ that I never had
Oh, hug me, hug me, honey mine
And kept it up! keep it up! all of the time
2. Joe said “That may be so
I’d like to be your beau
But there’s another Joe
A-hanging around like Romeo
If you want love that’s true
You must tell him you’re through
I’ll be your own, but you must love me alone
Love me and I’ll love you, too
