When I was just a little boy,
The devil did appear.
Sat upon my shoulder, had his fork,
Leaned down, whispered in my ear,

Said, "It won't be long,
In sweet time,
Sooner or later
You will be mine.

No, it won't be long,
In sweet time,
Sooner or later
You will be mine."

Then the angels, they came down from above
To find out what the devil said.
They told me if I ever found true love
They'd stick a halo on my head.

Said, "Hurry up.
Don't waste time.
No, it won't be easy
For you to find.

You better hurry up.
Don't waste time.
No, it won't be easy
For you to find."

Well I ain't worried any more.
There ain't no need.
I ain't searchin' any more
'Cause I found you.

It won't be long,
In sweet time,
Sooner or later
You will be mine.

No, it won't be long,
In sweet time,
Sooner or later
You will be mine.
I'll make you my Valentine.
