Sweet Thing

When I picked you up for our first date, baby

Well, your pretty blue eyes, they were drivin' me crazy

And the tiny little thought that was so amazing is they were lookin' at me

I held open the car door for you

Then you climbed inside and slid on over to the other side

I thought my, oh my

Sweet thing

The moon is high and the night is young

Come on and meet me

In the backyard under the cottonwood tree

It's a good thing and I'm wishin'

Come on sweet thing

Won't you climb on out of your window

While the world is sleepin'?

You know I need you and there's no way I'll be leavin'

Till we're kissing on the porch swing

Oh, my little sweet thing, ooh

Yeah, I know I'm gonna see you first thing tomorrow

But I just couldn't wait so I had to borrow Uncle Jake's Mustang

It's his favorite car and so I can't stay long

Standin' here feeling like a lovestruck Romeo

All I wanna do is hold you close and steal a little more time

Is that such a crime?

Sweet thing

The moon is high and the night is young

Come on and meet me

In the backyard under the cottonwood tree

It's a good thing and I'm wishin'

Come on sweet thing

Won't you climb on out of your window while the world is sleepin'?

'Cause you know I need you and there's no way I'll be leavin'

Till we're kissing on the porch swing

Oh, my sweet thing, woo

Oh, my sweet thing, sweet thing, sweet thing, sweet thing

Oh, my sweet thing

The moon is high and the night is young

Come on and meet me

In the backyard under the cottonwood tree

It's a good thing, tell me I'm not dreamin'

Oh, sweet thing

Won't you climb on out of your window while the world is sleepin'?

'Cause you know I need you and there's no way I'll be leavin'

Till we're kissing on the porch swing

Oh, my little sweet thing, woo

Aye, aye, yeah, ooh, ooh, ooh

Oh, come on sweet thing, sweet thing, sweet thing, sweet thing, sweet thing

Yeah, yeah, come on now my little

Oh, my little sweet thing, yes, you are
