[Intro]
I was born in Lil' Rock
Had a childhood sweetheart
Hey, hey, hey
[Verse 1]
I was born in Lil' Rock
Had a childhood sweetheart
We were always hand in hand
I wore hightop shoes and shirt tails
Suzy was in pigtails
I know I loved her even then
You know my papa disapproved it
My mama boo-hooed it
But I told them time and time again
"You know that I was made to love her
Build my world all around her"
Hey, hey-hey, hey
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
All through thick and thin
Our love just won't end
'Cause I love my baby, love my baby, ah
[Verse 2]
She's been my inspiration
Showed appreciation
For the love I gave her through the years
Oh, like a sweet magnolia tree
My love blossoms tenderly
My life grows sweeter through the years
Oh, but don't you know I've been knee-high to a chicken
To give this love up for anything
I'd have to be the greatest man living
Oh, if that destined mountain tumbles
Before that crumbles
I'd sigh but I'd still be standing there
You know my baby loves me
My baby needs me
And I know I ain't going nowhere
Yeah, 'cause I was made to love her
Build my world all around her
Hey, hey-hey, hey, hey
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
Hey, I love my tender
Don't you know she's alright
Well
Hey, hey, woo-ooh
Whoa, you're my baby
Hey, hey, hey, I love my baby
Well
