I know you've heard so many people say I've got a different girl in every town But there must be somebody telling lies And spreading rumors, spreading rumors all around Because my only joy, is a cuddly toy Waiting for me when I get home And what I need is a girl like you To call my very own [Chorus] So you've got to feel for me baby So you've got to feel for me baby So you've got to feel for me baby And give me some love Well I don't pour out my heart like this, to everyone And anyone that I meet And I know it ain't the wine 'cause I feel just fine, Can't you see baby, I'm still on my feet A cuddly toy is my only joy Waiting for me when I get home And what I need is a girl like you To call my very own [Chorus] A cuddly toy is my only joy Waiting for me when I get home And what I need is a girl like you To call my very own [Chorus]
