someone sweet to love

mama knows her child is ailing

what is wrong there ain't no telling

she don't know what's run my fever up

she wants to take me to the clinic

i don't need to see no dentist

all i need is someone sweet to love

don't you bring me doctor jake

i'm strong enough to swim a lake

all i need is what i'm dreaming of

she lives just some corner

help me out or i'm a goner

i've gotta find me someone sweet to love

yes i work hard to make my money

like the beehives love their honey

everything but one fits like a glove

so don't send me a nice long letter

asking me if i feel better

all i need is someone sweet to love

don't you bring me doctor jake

i'm strong enough to swim a lake

all i need is what i'm dreaming of

she lives just some corner

help me out or i'm a goner

i've gotta find me someone sweet to love
