The love bug done bit me, Didn't mean for him to get me, Woo, get up in the morning And I'm filled with desire, No, no, I can't stop the fire, Love is real live wire, Oo, it's a burning sensation, Far beyond imagination. Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart, tearing it all apart, Just an itching in my heart, And, baby, I can't scratch it. Keeps me sighing, oo Keeps me yearning, No mama can't help me, No daddy can't help me I've been bitten by the love bug, And I need some information o help me out of this situation, Now, when you're ill you take a pill, When you're thirsty, drink your fill, What you gonna do, oh yeah, when love gets a hold, a hold on you, Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart, And, baby, I can't scratch it. Love is a nagging irritation, Causing my heart complication, Love is a growing infection, And I don't know the correction, Got me rocking and a-reeling, And I can't shake the feeling. Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart, tearing it all apart, Just an Itching in my heart, And, baby, I can't scratch it.
