I've Got That Lovin' Bug Itch

(album: Down To Eartha - 1955)

I've got that loving bug itch,
But no-one to scratch it!
Got a good ball to pitch
But no-one to catch it!
Here's the key to my heart,
Won't somebody unlatch it?
Got that loving bug itch!

And I've got two loving arms,
They're not made of plastic!
Got a wonderful urge
To do something drastic!
I'm just dying to splurge
In a way that's fantastic!
Got that loving bug itch! (I got that loving bug itch)

There was a time that nothing ever bothered me,
And I was pretty certain I would never be hooked!
But I've been bitten by the love bug and it's plain to see
That my goose (oh me!) is cooked! (oh my!)

I've got that loving bug itch,
I'm a gal who's been yearning!
And my heart's within reach,
A fire is burning!
If you're willing to teach,
Then I'm ready for the learning!
Got that loving bug itch!

I've got that loving bug itch,
But no-one to scratch it!
Got a good ball to pitch
But no-one to catch it!
Here's the key to my heart,
Won't somebody unlatch it?
Got that loving bug itch! (I got that loving bug itch)

There was a time that nothing ever bothered me,
And I was pretty certain I would never be hooked!
But I've been bitten by the love bug and it's plain to see
That my goose (oh me!) is cooked! (oh my!)

I pray to heaven above
To stop me from shaking,
Got a heart full of love,
It's just about breakin'!
All I need is a shove
And I'm yours for the takin'!
Got that loving bug itch! (got that loving bug itch)
Got that loving bug itch! (got that loving bug itch)
Got that loving bug itch! (got that loving bug itch)
