[Verse 1]
I was born in Little Rock
Had a childhood sweetheart
We were always hand in hand

I was high top shoes and shirt tails
Suzy was in pig tails
I know I loved her even then

You know my papa disapproved it
My mama boohooed it
But I told them time and time again

[Chorus]
"Don't you know I was made to love her
Built a world all around her"
Yeah! Hey, hey, hey

[Verse 2]
She's been my inspiration
Showed appreciation
For the love I gave her through the years

Like a sweet magnolia tree
My love blossomed tenderly
My life grew sweeter through the years
I know that my baby loves me
My baby needs me
That's why we made it through the years

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
All through thick and thin
Our love just won't end
Because I love my baby, love my baby, ah

My baby loves me
My baby needs me
And I know I'm not going nowhere

I was knee high to a chicken
When that love bug bit me
I had the fever with each passing year

Oh, even if the mountain tumbles
If this whole world crumbles
By her side I'll still be standing there

[Chorus][x 3]
