Love (mmm-mmm-mmmm),
Love is strange (yay-yay).
Lot of people (mmm-mmm-mmmm),
Take it for a game.
Once you get it (mmm-mmm-mmmm),
You'll never wanna quit (no, no).
After you've had it (yay-yay),
You're in an awful fix.

Many people (mmm-mmm-mmmm),
Don't understand (no, no).
They think loving (yay-yay),
Is money in the hand.
Your sweet loving (mmm-mmm-mmmm),
Is better than a kiss (yay-yay).
When you leave me (mmm-mmm-mmmm),
Sweet kisses I miss.
