Put your arms around me
Like a circle 'round the sun
I want you love me mama
Like my easy rider done
You don't believe I love ya
Look what a fool I've been
You don't believe I'm sinking
Look what a hole I'm in
I'm stealin', I'm stealin'
Pretty mama don't you tell on me
I'm stealin' back my
My same old used to be
So put your arms around me
Like a circle 'round the sun
I want you love me mama
Like my easy rider done
You don't believe I love ya
Well look what a fool I've been
You don't believe I'm sinking mama
Well look what a hole I'm in
I'm stealin', yes I'm stealin'
Pretty mama don't you tell on me-ee
'Cause I'm stealing back my
My same old used to be
Okay - Hooh - Wooh mama
So plea-ease put your arms around me
Like that old circle 'round the sun
I want you love me mama
Like my easy rider done
You don't believe I love ya
Look what a fool I've been
You don't believe I'm sinkin' mama
But look what a hole I'm in
Stealin', yes I'm stealing
Pretty mama don't you tell on me
Yes I'm stealing back my
My same old used to be
Pretty mama don't you tell on me-ee
'Cause I'm stealin' back to my
My same old used to be-ee...
Wooh! - Thankyou, yeah - That was Stealin'
Thanks very much, thank you
