I 
I want 
I want you 
I want you to 
I want you to be 
I want you to be my baby 

Will 
Will you 
Will you please 
Will you please tell 
Will you please tell me 
If you're going to be my baby 

Listen to your mama and you never 
will forget it 
And if anybody wonders you can tell 
them that I said it 
The only thing I know is that I never 
can forget ya 
I've been longin' for ya baby ever 
since the day I metcha 
I gotcha where I want'cha and I'm never 
gonna let'cha 
Get away from me 

Hear what I tell ya 
I'm the gal for you and so you'd better 
start to face it 
If you ever lose my love you know you 
can't replace it 
I think it's time for you to start to 
give me some lovin '
Carryin' a torch for you that's hotter 
than an oven 
It's time for you to give me a little 
bit of lovin' 
Baby, hold me tight and do what I tell you 

I 
I want 
I want you 
I want you to 
I want you to be 
I want you to be my baby 

Will 
Will you 
Will you please 
Will you please tell 
Will you please tell me 
If you're going to be my baby
