Mmmmm, Yeah.
|
|
I was a freckle-faced kid with a buck tooth grin.
|
I was cuttin' her grass when she asked me in.
|
Learned everything that I needed to learn,
|
When I was sixteen, know what I mean.
|
Whoo, ooh, ooh, grew up fast.
|
Fin'lly found somethin' I was really good at.
|
When it comes to love,
|
I know what I'm talkin' about.
|
|
I know my history, but good lovin' gets me.
|
It ain't no mystery, just kiss me: kiss me, baby.
|
I never learned my lesson: I'm pretty good at guessin'.
|
I been down that road a time or two or three:
|
I know my history.
|
Come a little closer, let me show you what it's all about.
|
Oh, I know my history, baby.
|
|
You can second guess me all night long,
|
Make yourself believe that it's all wrong.
|
Sooner or later, girl,
|
You're gonna see you can trust me.
|
Once again there, whoo, ooh, ooh, step into school:
|
Let me show you a thing or two:
|
When it comes to love,
|
I know what I'm talkin' about.
|
|
I know my history, but good lovin' gets me.
|
It ain't no mystery, just kiss me: kiss me, baby.
|
I never learned my lesson: I'm pretty good at guessin'.
|
I been down that road a time or two or three:
|
I know my history.
|
|
Don't worry 'bout tomorrow, come along girl.
|
Got his own road on a right cool world.
|
Take my hand, it's just you an' me.
|
Tonight's the night we're makin' history.
|
|
Instrumental Break.
|
(A little, little history.)
|
(Whoo, ooh, ooh.)
|
|
I know my history, yeah, good lovin' gets me.
|
It ain't no mystery, just kiss me: (Kiss me.)
|
Come a little closer, let me show you what it's all about.
