Well he's daddy's little boy he plays with his toys
He holds on to his daddy's hand
His daddy says sonny you're a big strong boy
You're gonna be a big strong man
And they go play catch they go play ball
They go take a walk along the sand
Big strong daddy and a big strong boy
Living in a big strong land
Daddy is he a goodie or a baddie
Daddy can i have a dinosaur
Once upon a time there were cannibals
Now there are no cannibals any more
Down in louisiana there's a hurricane coming
The little boy climbs the stairs
And all along the levee all the people come running
And the little boy's saying his prayers
And a sleepy little laddie smiles up at his daddy
And he's asking for his g.i. joe
And daddy tucks him in with a kiss upon the chin
And says my little one i love you so
Daddy is he a goodie or a baddie
Leave a light outside the door
Once upon a time there were cannibals
Now there are no cannibals any more
Lay down your head now don't get out of bed
Don't you let the bedbugs bite
It's time to go to sleep now not another peep
And i'll see you in the morning light
And then the radio was playing and the weatherman was saying
The hurricane had blown away
And daddy's little boy was jumping up for joy
And he was singing at the break of day
Daddy is he a goodie or a baddie
Daddy can i be a warrior
Once upon a time there were cannibals
Now there are no cannibals any more
Yeah daddy is he a goodie or a baddie
Daddy why do people go to war
Once upon a time there were cannibals
Now there are no cannibals any more
Well gimme a little loving in the morning
I want a little loving (...)
But you want to get your loving in the evening
When i want to get some loving in the day
I tell her that i'm working in the morning
I tell her that i gotta get my rest
She tells me she's a-working on her loving
And she tells me that my loving is the best
Well it's a tall order baby
And it's a tall order now
Well it's a tall order baby
But we gotta get our loving somehow
Well i don't want to go to sleep on you baby
I don't want to go to sleep on you now
But if i'm going to go to sleep on you baby
Well i'm gonna do it any how
Well don't you turn your back on me darling
Don't you know i'd like to stay up and play
But if i turn my back on you darling
You're going to do it some other way
Well it's a tall order baby
And it's a tall order now
Well it's a tall order baby
But we gotta get our loving somehow
It's a tall order baby
Well it's a tall order now
Well it's a tall order baby
But we gotta get our loving somehow
Well i don't want to go to sleep on you baby
I don't want to go to sleep on you now
But if i'm going to go to sleep on you baby
Well i'm gonna do it any how
Well don't you turn your back on me darling
Don't you know i'd like to stay up and play
But if i turn my back on you darling
You're going to do it some other way
Well it's a tall order baby
And it's a tall order now
Well it's a tall order baby
But we gotta get our loving somehow
Well it's a tall order baby
And it's a tall order now
Well it's a tall order baby
But we gotta get our loving somehow
Now if i was to sing for you
A song you never heard
And give it to you my finest treasure
Would you look at what i bring to you
Turn without a word
Leave me at your gate
Keep me waiting at your pleasure
What have i
What have i got
What have i got to do
To win your love
Maybe never
What have i
What have i got
What have i got to do
To win your love
Forever
Well i'll beat out a lion heart tattoo
I'll bring you pipes and drums
I'll bring you books of burnished leather
I'll set to sea in ships for you
Brave a thousand runs
Ride a hurricane
Laugh at any stormy weather
What have i
What have i got
What have i got to do
To win your love
Maybe never
What have i
What have i got
What have i got to do
To win your love
Forever
You set no store by gems and gold
You scorn my weather chart
You are not concerned with men's advances
I want you more a hundred-fold
When you lift my heart
I'll burn no other flame
Bear no one else's lances
What have i
What have i got
What have i got to do
To win your love
Maybe never
What have i
What have i got
What have i got to do
To win your love
Forever
To win your love
Forever
