I’m just a (For Lady T) sucker
I’m just a

I’m just a sucker for your love, sucker for love
(I’m just a sucker for love, sucker for love, sucker for love, baby)
I’m just a sucker for your love, sucker for love
(I’m just a sucker for love, sucker for love, sucker for your love, baby)

Well, you’re a fine sexy little lady
You like your candy very sweet
You’re a classy little dame, with sophisticated game
And you know all of the best restaurants to eat, uh-huh

Baby, you too are a mellow fellow
And you’re as rare as vintage wine
I’ll take you any place fit into your time and space
That’s why I chose to make you mine, uh-huh

I’m just a sucker for your love, sucker for love
(I’m just a sucker for love, sucker for love, sucker for love, baby)
I’m just a sucker for your love, sucker for love
(I’m just a sucker for love, sucker for love, sucker for your love, baby)

Doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo (Doo-doo-doo)
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo (Doo-doo-doo-wah)
Doo-doo-doo-doo-wah (Doo-doo-doo-wah-wah, sing)

Doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo (Doo-doo-doo-wah-wah)
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo (Doo-doo-doo-wah-wah)
Doo-doo-doo-doo-wah (Well)

Some times you get mad at me, baby
And you don’t want to see my face around
Times may get rough, but I know there’s enough
Enough freaky love when my love tumbles down, baby, doo-wah-wah

“Don’t you do that, don’t you do that, ” that’s what I used to say
When I got mad and didn’t want your touch (Uh-huh)
But how could I resist when you start to kiss
Sucked in once again, I let you win, uh-huh

Well, you’re a sweet sexy thing
And you make my whole heart sing
And there’s nothing in this world I wouldn’t do (Yeah, well)

I’m just a sucker for your love (I’m a sucker too, baby), sucker for love
I’m just a sucker for your love (Oh, I’m, oh, I’m a sucker)

Doo-wah
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo (Doo-doo-doo)
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo (Doo-doo-doo-doo)
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo (Sucker for love, sucker for love, sucker for love, baby)

Doo-wah
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo (Doo-doo-doo-doo)
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo (Doo-doo-doo-wah-wah)
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo (Ooh, Teena, baby)

I’m just a sucker for your love
I’m just a sucker for your love
(Doo-doo-doo-wah-wah, sing)

I’m a sucker for love
For your love, for your love
I’m just a sucker for love
For your love, for your love

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo (Doo-doo-doo-doo)
Doo-wah (Doo-wah)
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo (Doo-doo-doo)
Doo wah
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo

Well, you’re a sweet sexy thing
And you make my whole heart sing
And there’s nothing in this world I wouldn’t do

Doo wah
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
I’m just a sucker for your love

Doo-wah
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
I’m just a sucker for your love

Doo-doo-doo-wah
Doo-doo-doo-wah-wah
(Sucker for love, sucker for love, sucker for love, baby)
Doo-doo-doo-wah
Doo-doo-doo-wah-wah (Doo-doo-doo-wah)

I’m just a sucker for love, for your love, for your love
I’m just a sucker for love, sucker for love, sucker for love
I’m just a sucker for love, sucker for love, sucker for love

Doo-doo-doo-wah-wah
Doo-doo-doo-wah-wah
