This is hip pretty baby
This is hip pretty baby
This is hip pretty baby
I messed around and fell in love

You know you called me up on your telephone
You want me to take you for a ride
This is hip pretty baby
This is hip pretty baby
This is hip pretty baby
I messed around and fell in love

Will you come to my house and you dance with me
You hold me tight and you kiss me too
This is hip pretty baby
This is hip pretty baby
This is hip pretty baby
You gonna kiss me baby
I messed around and fell in love, ooh yeah

When you call me up, you talk a long time
You talk to me over your telephone
You tellin' me, your comin' round over baby
This is hip pretty baby
This is hip pretty baby
This is hip pretty baby
I messed around and fell in love

When you blasting me, you rock me too
You rock my soul and set on fire
This is hip pretty baby
This is hip pretty baby
This is hip pretty baby
I messed around and fell in love

You been a rockin' good way
You been a rockin' good way
You been a rockin' good way
I messed around and fell in love
