I Want Every Bit of It Lyrics


Listen to my plea this mornin'
My love gonna get you told
Pay attention to my warnin'
'Cause you've been actin', quite too bold
Everything you give me must suit me to a teeI want every bit of it or none at all
'Cause I don't like it second hand
I want all your kisses or none at all
Give me lots of candy, honey, love is grandMama like lovin' both night and day
I don't like no two-time, that's why I say
I want every bit of it or none at all
'Cause I don't like it second hand
No I don't like it second handI want every bit of it or none at all
'Cause I don't like it second hand
I want all your kisses or none at all
Just put up plenty, honey, that's my command
