2-4-6-8, who do you appreciate
Please say that boy it's me
2, 4, 6, 8, who do you appreciate
I'm the one who wants to be your baby
2-4-6-8, who do you appreciate
Get up early to see you in the morning but you just past me by
If I were Jack Horner sitting in the corner with you I share my pie
I past your homeroom wishing you were my own room
Every time I looked inside
I sit here hoping someday you'll notice the look here in my eyes
2-4-6-8, who do you appreciate
Please be my pride and joy
2-4-6-8, who do you appreciate
I wanna be your lover boy
I maybe a little fella but my hearts as big as Texas
I have all the love a man can give and maybe a little bit extra
Ooh, be my girl
The best time of day for me is at recess
That's when you talked to me
I think I'm the boy you like the best
I want more than a friend to be
He wanna be your fella just trying to tell ya but you pay him no mind
He's no price charmer still he keeps trying girl you're so unkind
I can love you really really love you, I can tell at just a glance
I can please you really really please you girl give me half a chance
2-4-6-8, who do you appreciate
Oh, baby say it's me
2-4-6-8, who do you appreciate
Don't you know I wanna be your baby yeah
Baby your baby baby baby baby
Oh, he wanna be your fella just trying to tell ya, but you pay him no mind
He's no price charmer still he keeps trying girl you're so unkind
2-4-6-8, who do you appreciate
Ooh, ooh baby yeah yeah
2-4-6-8, who do you appreciate
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
2-4-6-8, who do you appreciate
Ooh, must be my girl
2-4-6-8, who do you appreciate
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
2-4-6-8, who do you appreciate
Won't you be my girl yeah yeah
2-4-6-8, who do you appreciate
Ooh, ooh hey
