Lyrics

1. There’s a girl I’m wild about
   Ev’ry time I take her out
   I hug her, I squeeze her, I tease her so
   And we always can be found
   Where there’s no one else around
   Do we cuddle? Do we pet?
   You ain’t heard nothin’ yet

Chorus
I love her in the morning
And I love her at night
I love her, yes I love her
When the stars are shining bright
I love her in the springtime
And I love her in the fall
But last night on the back porch
I loved her best of all

2. Ev’ry time that she’s alone
   When I call her on the phone
   I hurry, I scurry, I worry so
   I’m afraid that I might see
   Someone there in place of me
   If I lost her, what a blow
   I love her Oh! Oh! Oh!
