chip away the stone

well your actin' like a prima donna

playin' so hard to get

actin' so cool and nonchalant

draggin' on a cigarette

you keep a wall all around ya

i'll get through some day

i want your love babe

but push don't shove

gonna chip that stone away

chip away

chip away at the stone

and i won't stop until your love is my very own

chip away

that's what i'm gonna do

sweet little mama i wanna get next to you

well you stand like a marble statue

trying to look so hard

all decked out in your antique dress

while the boys all promenade

even a rock will crumble

if you strike it night and day

if hammer i must

i'm gonna get through your crust

gonna chip that stone away

chip away

chip away at the stone

and i won't stop until your love is my very own

chip away

that's what i'm gonna do

sweet little mama i wanna get next to you

chip away

chip away at the stone

and i won't stop until your love is my very own

chip away

that's what i'm gonna do

sweet little mama i wanna get next to you

oooh.yes i do. chip away

chip away

at the stone

chip away

chip away

at the stone

i won't stop

i won't stop

i won't stop

i won't stop

i won't stop

i won't stop

i won't stop

i won't stop

i won't stop

i won't stop

won't stop

chip it

i'm gonna nip it

all night long
