Tell me honey, now tell me please
Is my lover hard to please
I'm gettin' groggy in my knees
Baby it must be love
A funny feelin' reaches up my spine
To my head like cherry wine
Make me think the world's all mine
Baby it must be love
I hear the church bell ringin'
I see visions clear
I hear the birdies singin'
I know darn well there's no birdies near
I don't like your shirts and ties
They don't seem to harmonise
They don't match them big brown eyes
Baby it must be love
Can be a rich man, a poor man, a beggar man, king
It'll make you give up everything
Every time you feel that sting
Honey it must be love
Made a preacher lay his bible down
Made a rabbit hug a hound
Made King Edward give up his crown
Baby it must be love
I hear the church bell ringin'
I see visions clear
I hear the birdies singin'
Know darn well there's no birdies near
I don't like your shirts and ties
They don't seem to harmonise
They don't match those big brown eyes
Mama it must be love
Baby it must be love
