[Verse 1]
Sitting in a tiny room in a tiny town
All dressed up for somebody but no one came around
Went out and bought a pair of shoes, I even bought a hat
Ain't nobody come around to tell me where I'm at
[Chorus]
Won’t You Be My Lover? O
Won’t You Be My Lover? O
Won’t You Be My Lover? O
O, won't you be my love?
[Verse 2]
You need a place to take your calls, I'll let you use my place
Just tells me lots of pretty lies and kiss my on my face
Stroke my hair and bite my ear and grab me 'round the waist
Promises that you can't keep are cheerfully erased
[Chorus]
Won’t You Be My Lovеr? O
Won’t You Be My Lover? O
Won’t You Be My Lovеr? O
O, won't you be my love?
[Verse 3]
I'll cook you meals, massage your heels, and feed you peaches too
I never felt this way before, the way I feel for you
So I'll clean up all your shirts, I'll even walk your dog
And if you want a fire built I'll go and chop a log
[Chorus]
Won’t You Be My Lover? O
Won’t You Be My Lover? O
Won’t You Be My Lover? O
O, won't you be my love?
[Verse 4]
There's the offer, there's the deal, what you got to lose?
Let me be a special friend and chase away your blues
Let me watch you when you laugh and crinkle up your eyes
If you don't love me right away you get a few more tries
[Chorus]
Won’t You Be My Lover? O
Won’t You Be My Lover? O
Won’t You Be My Lover? O
O, won't you be my love?
[Outro]
Hey, won't you be my love?
What can I say after I said
"Won't you be my love?"?
I mean it, baby
Won't you be my love? I'm begging you
Won't you be my love?
