Why don't you haul off and love me one more time
Why don't you squeeze me until I'm turning blind
If you don't cuddle up and love me like I want you to do
I'm a gonna haul off and die over you

They say the love bug will get you at the age of forty-three
Well I'm not telling my age but something's got a hold of me
I'm just craving some lovin' in that old fashion way
Honey linger near and listen to all I had to say
Why don't you haul off

Now darling come a little closer put your little hand in mine
Let me feel your arms about me honey please don't change your mind
Cause my lovesick heart's a troublin' as I hold you close to mine
I'm bout havin' lot of lovin' waitin' for me on the line
Why don't you haul off
