Cross Patch

Cross patch how can anyone be so cross
Won't you tumble off your high horse
You know you love to be loved
Cross patch, if you feel the wind change, they say
It will make your face stay that way
And then you'll never be loved
Cultivate a smile sweet and sunny
You can catch a fly with honey
You're actin so spoiled
Shame, shame... everybody knows your name
Cross patch don't you know it takes two to fight
Won't you kiss and make up tonight
You know you love to be loved
