HER LOVE RUBBED OFF
(C. Perkins)
CARL PERKINS (SUNBOX 101, rec. 1957)

Well, I was so alone in the city park
I met my baby, she was standing in the dark
Took my lovin' baby by the hand
I let her know that I'm her lovin' man
I let her know that I'm her lovin' man
That love rubbed off on me
That baby wouldn't let me be
That baby took me by the hand
That love, I made her understand
That love, I hollered no-no-no
That baby wouldn't let me go
Oh-oh!

Well, I'm a hot rod freak for a fancy car
Drive-in movies and caviar
Mink sport coats and a lot of things
Even down to a wedding ring
Even down to a wedding ring
That love rubbed off on me
That baby wouldn't let me be
Oh, that love took me by the hand
That love, I made her understand
That love, I hollered go-go-go
That baby wouldn't let me go
Oh-oh! Yeah!

Well, I'm a hot rod freak for a fancy car
Drive-in movies and caviar
Mink sport coats and a lot of things
Even down to a wedding ring
Even down to a wedding ring
That love rubbed off on me
My baby wouldn't let me be
My baby wouldn't let me go
That love, I hollered no-no-no
That baby wouldn't let me be
My baby wouldn't set me free
That woman hollored more-more-more
Oh, baby don't you let me go
Oh, baby won't you hold my hand
Oh, baby, her love rubbed off on me
Her love rubbed off on me
Ooh!
