Well, I was so alone in the city park
I met my baby, she was standing in the dark
Took my lovin' baby by the hand
I let her know that I'm her lovin' man
I let her know that I'm her lovin' man
That love rubbed off on me
That baby wouldn't let me be
That baby took me by the hand
That love, I made her understand
That love, I hollered no, no, no
That baby wouldn't let me go, oh, oh
Well, I'm a hot rod freak for a fancy car
Drive in movies and caviar
Mink sport coats and a lot of things
Even down to a wedding ring
Even down to a wedding ring
That love rubbed off on me
That baby wouldn't let me be
Oh, that love took me by the hand
That love, I made her understand
That love, I hollered go, go, go
That baby wouldn't let me go, oh yeah
Well, I'm a hot rod freak for a fancy car
Drive in movies and caviar
Mink sport coats and a lot of things
Even down to a wedding ring
Even down to a wedding ring
That love rubbed off on me
My baby wouldn't let me be
My baby wouldn't let me go
That love, I hollered no, no, no
That baby wouldn't let me be
My baby wouldn't set me free
That woman hollered more, more, more
Oh, baby, don't you let me go
Oh, baby, won't you hold my hand
Oh, baby, her love rubbed off on me
Her love rubbed off on me, ooh
