Classic Poem

VERSE 1

Though it's a fickle age,
With flirting all the rage,
Here is one bird with self-control,
Happy inside my cage.
I know who I love best,
Thumbs down on all the rest,
My love was given heart and soul,
So it can stand the test.

REFRAIN

No one to talk with,
All by myself,
No one to walk with
But I'm happy on the shelf,
Ain't misbehavin',
I'm savin' my love for you.
I know for certain
The one I love,
I'm through with flirtin',
It's just you I'm thinkin' of,
Ain't misbehavin',
I'm savin' my love for you.
Like Jack Horner
In the corner,
Don't go nowhere,
What do I care,
Your kisses are worth waitin' for,
Believe me.
I don't stay out late,
Don't care to go,
I'm home about eight,
Just me and my radio,
Ain't misbehavin',
I'm savin' my love for you.

VERSE 2

Your type of man is rare,
I know you really care,
That's why my conscience never sleeps
When you're away somewhere.
Sure was a lucky day
When fate sent you my way,
And made you mine alone for keeps,
Ditto to all you say.
