Lyrics
Oh yes I’ve got a lot o’ living to doA whole lot o’ loving to doCome on baby, to make a party takes twoOh yes I’ve got a lot o’ living to do
A whole lot o’ loving to doAnd there’s no one who I’d rather do it with-a than youThere’s a moon that’s big and bright in the milky way tonightBut the way you act you never would know it’s there
So baby, time’s a wastingA lot of kisses I ain’t been tastingI don’t know about you but I’m gonna get my shareOh got a lot o’ living to do
A whole lot o’ loving to doCome on baby, to make a party takes twoOh yes I’ve got a lot o’ living to doA whole lot o’ loving to do
A whole lot o’ loving to doCome on baby, to make a party takes twoOh yes I’ve got a lot o’ living to doA whole lot o’ loving to doAnd there’s no one who I’d rather do it with-a than youAnd there’s no one who I’d rather do it with-a than youAnd there’s no one who I’d rather do it with-a than you
