Oh, you don't always say the words
I wanna hear, no baby
But To me you're really saying
Something dearOh, you're not the kind of girl
To win a beauty prize
Just your smile, girl, lets me know
Where your beauty lies
Makes me realizeYou're a sweet thing
You're a sweet thing
Baby, listen, honeyYou can't seem to do the things
I ask you to
Oh, but I can't help but love
The way you do the things you doNo, you're not the kind of girl
That men just can't resist
There's a certain somethin' in your kiss
Oh, makes me wanna singYou're a sweet thing
You are a sweet thing
Baby, ohh babyYeah yeah, you're a sweet thing
You are a sweet thing, babyThere may be a lot of things
You'll never be
Oh, but the little things you are
They mean everything to meSo love, don't ever try and be
All mankind's ideal
Just stay the way you are
Right now, girl
Truthful and for real
You've got your appealOhh, you're a sweet thing
Honey, you are a sweet thing
Baby, sweeter than wine
That's why I'm glad you're mineBaby, sweeter than a rose
So now my love just grows and grows
