Why don't you haul off and love me

Why don't you haul off and love me one more time
Why don't you squeeze me until I'm turning blind
If you don't cuddle up and love me like I want you to do
I'm gonna haul off and die over you

They say a love bug will get you at the age of twenty-three
I'm not telling my age but something got a hold of me
I'm just craving some loving in that old fashion way
Honey linger near and listen to all I have to say

Why don't you haul off and love me one more time...

[ guitar ]
Now darling come a little closer put your little hand in mine
Let me feel your arms about me honey please don't change your mind
For my lovesick heart's a throbbin' as I hold you close to mine
Found I'm havin' lot of lovin' waitin' for me on the line

Why don't you haul off and love me one more time...

[ piano ]
Now I can feel your warm lips near me hear you breathe so soft and fine
I can feel the matrimony crawlin' up and down my spine
I don't believe that love will hurt you cause it feels so nice and kind
Seems mighty close to heaven when your love is on the line

Why don't you haul off and love me one more time...
