Shoo-dop, shoo-dop
Shoo-dop-do-do-do, oh
Shoo-dop, shoo-dop
Shoo-do-do-do, ooh

I ain't gonna tell anybody
Tell anybody about you
Because if I should tell anybody
They'll try to steal you from me
Oh, oh-ho...

You got everything in a girl I want
And I don't wanna share you, baby
With nobody else
If my friends saw you
The first thing they would do
Is try to steal (steal) steal (steal)
My baby (steal) away (ooh...)

Oh, I ain't gonna tell anybody
Tell anybody (I ain't gonna tell nobody) about you
(About my, about my baby)
Because if I should tell anybody
They'll try to steal you from me
(Oh, they'd try to steal my...)

The friends I've known
Have tried everything they could
To find out where my sweet baby lives
I know I got a smile on my face
All the loneliness has been erased
I'm gonna hold on (on), hold on (on)
Hey... (on to...)

I ain't gonna tell anybody
Tell anybody about you (I ain't gonna, I, I...)
(Oh baby...)
Because (can I hold you?)
If I should tell anybody (can I squeeze you, girl?)
They'll try to steal you from me (oh, would you be mine?)
From me (I ain't gonna lose your thing up)

They're trying to steal my baby away, girl
They're trying to steal my baby away
(Oh-ho...) They're trying to steal my baby away
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-ho, hey, oh baby...

I ain't gonna tell anybody
Tell anybody about you (I ain't gonna, I ain't gonna)
(Never, ain't gonna tell nobody)
Because if I should tell anybody...
