It Makes My Love Come Down

When I see two sweethearts spoon1, underneath the silv'ry moon
It makes my love come down, I wanna be around
Kiss me, honey, it makes my love come down

Cuddle close, turn out the light, do just what you did last night
It makes my love come down, I wanna be in town
Sweet, sweet daddy, it makes my love come down

Wild about my toodle-oh2, when I gets my toodle-oh
It makes my love come down, want every pound
Hear me cryin', it makes my love come down

Likes my coffee, likes my tea, daffy3 about my stingaree
It makes my love come down, I wanna be around
Oh, sweet papa, it makes my love come down

If you want to hear me rave, honey, give me what I crave
It makes my love come down, actin' like a clown
Can't help from braggin', it makes my love come down

Come on and be my desert sheik, you're so strong and I'm so weak
It makes my love come down, to be love-land bound
Red hot papa, it makes my love come down

If you want me for your own, kiss me nice and leave me alone
It makes my love come down, it makes my love come down
Take me bye-bye, it makes my love come down

When you take me for a ride, when I'm close up by your side
It makes my love come down, ridin' all around
Easy ridin' makes my love come down
