You send cold chills up and down my spine
You kiss my chills
But you draw the line, oh baby
Oh baby
'Cause yo' mama told you that love wasn't right
Don't you know good lovin' is the spice of life, yeah
Mama's pearl, let down your curls
Won't you give my love a whirl
Find what you've been missin'
What you've been missin'
Oooh-oooh, now baby
Daddy's girl, let down your curls
Won't give you give your heart a twirl
Don't keep me wishin'
Keep me wishin'
Boom, ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom boom boom
Ba-boom, ba-boom boom
Boom, ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom boom boom
Ba-boom, ba-boom boom
You want my lovin'
Yes you do do do
Yes you do, I know you do
You want my lovin'
Is it true true true, now baby
Oh baby
Now your conscience tells you
Love is wrong
Oh
Did you know good lovin'
Never hurt no one
Oh
Mama's pearl, let down your curls
Won't you give my love a whirl
Find what you've been missin'
What you've been missin'
Oooh-oooh now baby
Daddy's girl, let down your curls
Won't you give your heart a twirl
Don't keep me wishin'
Keep me wishin'
Let it all hang out
Girl don't be afraid
Oooh, you've got the first step made
Oooh, the rest is up to you
Feel is what you do
Let yourself go
Let your lovin' flow, now now now
Let your lovin' flow, now now
Just give in to me
'Cause I've got what you need
Got what you need
Let's fall in love
Let's fall in love
Find out what you're missin'
Goody girl, we've got the pearl
Give your heart a twirl
Won't you give my love a whirl
Girl don't be afraid
Oooh, you've got the first step made
Oh just give in
Just give in to me
'Cause I've got what you need
Got what you need
Let's fall in love
Let's fall in love
Let yourself go
