Like your favorite thing dressed to please
Got you on your knees
Diggin' the pretty things
If you can, baby, you can sleep alone if it's good that way
What you ain't got you don't need anyway
If you dig the pretty things
Ooh, come along
I got a dollar in my pocket for you
Ooh, come along
And you can have it if you want it
She was seventeen when she caught my eye
She held me close, she made me cry
She said "come on, boy, show me your pretty things, yeah!"
Now little sister, she wants me now
Wants me to show her, show her how
To dig the pretty things!
Ooh, come along (come along, yeah!)
I got a dollar in my pocket for you (got a dollar in my pocket!)
Ooh, come along (come along!)
And you can have it if you want it
Now show us whatcha do, baby!
Now papa never won't tell no lies
Mama never blinked her eyes
She knows about a boy, loves the pretty, it's a pretty thing
And you can dance, if you can sing, boy
You'll laugh until you're crying
If you dig the pretty things!
Ooh, come along (come along, yeah!)
I got a dollar in my pocket for you (got a dollar in my pocket!)
Ooh, come along (come along!)
And you can have it if you want it
Now show us whatcha do, baby!
Ooh, come along (come along!)
I got a dollar in my pocket for you (oh, I got a dollar in my pocket!)
Ooh, come along (come along!)
And you can have it if you want it (you gotta have it, got to want it!)
Like your favorite thing dressed to please
Got you on your knees
Diggin' the pretty, pretty, pretty things
