Lyrics for Baby, It Must Be Love

Tell me honey, now tell me please Is my lover hard to please I'm gettin' groggy in my knees Baby it must be love A funny feelin' reaches up my spine To my head like cherry wine Make me think the world's all mine Baby it must be love I hear the church bell ringin' I see visions clear I hear the birdies singin' I know darn well there's no birdies near I don't like your shirts and ties They don't seem to harmonise They don't match them big brown eyes Baby it must be love Can be a rich man, a poor man, a beggar man, king It'll make you give up everything Every time you feel that sting Honey it must be love Made a preacher lay his bible down Made a rabbit hug a hound Made King Edward give up his crown Baby it must be love I hear the church bell ringin' I see visions clear I hear the birdies singin' Know darn well there's no birdies near I don't like your shirts and ties They don't seem to harmonise They don't match those big brown eyes Mama it must be love Baby it must be love
