Testi Looking for a Sweetie - Lonnie Johnson

Looking for a Sweetie

Here’s another number. It was made, it was recorded in the '30s.\nIt was a steal from this number. You know the number, «Confessin'?\nIsn’t the right lyrics. The right title of the song is, «Looking For A Little\nSweetie». Rudy Vallee stole the number, and 'cause it wasn’t copyrighted,\nduring that time I was working with ah, with ah, Chick Webb’s band. And\nhere’s the right lyrics to that song. Looking for my a little sweetie,\nsomeone I can call my own.\nWhen I find that certain someone, I’ll take her home.\n'Cause I’m longing for the lovin'.\nJust a little kiss from you dear, promise me that you’ll always will be true.\nThere’s so many I know, but I’ll always be faithful to you.\nWhen we take our honeymoon, we can make that non-stop flight.\nWe can do a lots of spooning and lovin' by the starlight, oh baby.\nWe can save a lots of money, and build that bungalow for two.\nIf that certain sweet someone, would only be you.\nI’m confessin' that I love you, tell me that you love me to.\nI’m confessin' that I love you, honest I do.\nI need you every moment.\nIn your eyes, I read such strange things, but your lips deny they’re true.\nWill your answer really change the thing that’s making me blue?\nI’m afraid someday you’ll leave me, sayin' «Can't we still be friends?»\nIf you go you know it will grieve me, my whole life on you depends, oh baby.\nAnd my guessin' that you’re rid of me, and my dreaming dreams of you it’s all\nin vain.\nI’m confessin' that I love you, all over again.\nSee what I mean? The whole song, all the way down.
