Lyrics

One, two, three, four
Hey baby come 'round
Keep holding me down
And I'll be keeping you up tonight
A four letter word got stuck in my head
The dirtiest word that I've ever said
It's making me feel alright
For what it's worth I love you
And what is worse I really do
Oh what is worse I'm gonna run, run, run
Till the sweetness gets to you
And what is worse I love you
Hey please baby come back
There'll be no more loving attack
And I'll be keeping it cool tonight
The four letter word is out of my head
Come on around get back in my bed
Keep making me feel alright
For what it's worth I like you
And what is worse I really do
Things have been worse
And we had fun, fun, fun
Till I said, "I love you"
And what is worse I really do
For what it's worth I love you
And what is worse I really do, oh
For what it's worth I love you
And what is worse I really do, oh
For what it's worth I love you
And what is worse I really do
