I got a girl - best girl in the world

But she won't give me a taste of it

Like she's living in a nunnery

Gives me a wink - drive me to drink

I know she's only making fun of me

All buttoned up, no place to go

She don't mind a squeeze - if I say please

D                 G       D           
I might even manage a kiss of her

D                G       D                G
But I'll get a slap - if I sit her on my lap

D                 G       D           
I call that so remiss of her

My girl Kate - she wants me to wait

D        G       D                       
But I got urges, don't I?

D        G       D                       G
I got desires - raging fires

But she dresses so racy

With everything silky, satiny, lacy
