You can shake an apple off an apple tree Shake-a, shake, sugar But you'll never shake me Uh-uh-uh No-sir-ee, uh, uh I'm gonna stick like glue Stick because I'm Stuck on you Gonna run my fingers through your long black hair Squeeze you tighter than a grizzly bear Uh-uh-uh Yes-sir-ee, uh, uh I'm gonna stick like glue Stick, because I'm Stuck on you Hide in the kitchen, hide in the hall Ain't gonna do you no good at all Cause once I catch ya, and the kissin' starts A team of wild horses couldn't tear us apart Try to take a tiger from his daddy's side That's how love is gonna keep us tied Uh-uh-uh Yes-sir-ee, uh, uh I'm gonna stick like glue Stick, because I'm Stuck on you
