Lovin’ Is The Thing I’m Wild About
[Verse]
Love me, daddy, love me all the time
Love me until I pass away
I'm just wild about my lovin'
Love me night and day
I used to have an old man who never did like lovin'
That man was not my kind
I've done found one who likes lovin' like me
And you can pass my house and hear me cryin'

[Chorus]
I want a man to be real nice to me and call me mama, I say, mama
I don't want no man if he can't call me mama, I say, mama
He's got to be nice and kind
Got to love me all the time
And when he starts lovin', all you can hear me say is
"Oh papa, who is your mama?"
Lord, I want a man I can play with all night long
I want a man to take back South to my mama's home
And, when he loves me in that old-fashioned way
I don't mind dying every day
Because lovin', lovin' is the thing I'm just wild about

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
I want a man that I can play with all night long
I want a man to take back South to my mama's home
And, when he loves me in that old-fashioned way
I don't mind dying every day
Because lovin', lovin' is the thing I'm just wild about
