Version 1
[Intro]
C G7 C
[Verse 1]
C
They say a lovebug will get you at the age of twenty three
G7
I'm not tellin' my age but something's got a hold of me
C
I'm just cravin' some lovin' in the old fashioned way
F C G7 C
Honey, lend an ear and listen to all I have to say
[Chorus]
C
Why don't you haul off and love me, one more time
G7
Why don't you squeeze me until I'm turnin' blind
C
If you don't cuddle up and love me like I want you to do
G7 C
I'm gonna haul off and die over you
[Instrumental]
C G7 C F C G7 C
[Verse 2]
C
Now, darlin', come a little closer, put your little hand in mine
G7
Let me feel your arms about me, honey, please don't change your mind
C
For the lovesick heart's a-throbbin' as I hold you close to mine
F C G7 C
I'm bound to have a lot of lovin' waitin' for me on the line
[Chorus]
C
Why don't you haul off and love me, one more time
G7
Why don't you squeeze me until I'm a-turnin' blind
C
If you don't cuddle up and love me like I want you to do
G7 C
I'm gonna haul off and die over you
[Instrumental]
C G7 C F C G7 C
[Verse 3]
C
Now, I can feel your warm lips near me, hear your breathin' soft and fine
G7
I can feel the matrimony crawlin' up and down my spine
C
I don't believe that love will hurt you 'cause it feels so nice and kind
F C G7 C
It seems mighty close to heaven when your love is on the line
[Chorus]
C
Why don't you haul off and love me, one more time
G7
Why don't you squeeze me until I'm turnin' blind
C
If you don't cuddle up and love me like I want you to do
G7 C
I'm gonna haul off and die over you
[Outro]
G7 C
