Just look my way
And I’m ready to go
Oooo-oo-oo, your sweet lovin’
I can’t leave it alone
You start my heart to pumpin’
Just walkin’ my way
I don’t care if I feel like a fool

Ohh, sweet feelin’
Got me rockin’ and a reelin’
Actin’ like a fool
Ohh, sweet feelin’
Got me rockin’ and really in love

Well, I know it’s always said
That love will break your heart
That ain’t so
‘Cause I gave my heart to you
And now I know

Ooooo, Sweet feelin’
Got me dancin’ on the ceiling
Actin’ like a fool
I don’t care if I feel like a fool

It’s just a, ohh, sweet feelin’
Got me rockin’ and a reelin’
Actin’ like a fool
Ohh, sweet feelin’
Got me rockin’ and really in love…
