Lyrics[]
I can dim the lights and sing you songs full of sad things
We can do the tango just for two
I can serenade and gently play on your heart strings
Be a Valentino just for you
Ooh, love
Ooh, lover boy
Whatcha doin' tonight? (ooh) Hey, boy
Set my alarm, turn on my charm
That's because I'm a good old-fashioned lover boy
Ooh, let my feel your heartbeat (grow faster, faster)
Ooh, can you feel my love heat? (Ooh-ooh)
Come on and sit in my hot-seat of love
And tell me how do you feel right after all?
I'd like for you and I to go romancing
Say the word, your wish is my command
Ooh, love
Ooh, lover boy
Whatcha doin' tonight? (ooh) Hey, boy
Write my letter, feel much better
And use my fancy patter on the telephone
When I'm not with you
Think of you always
I miss you (I miss those long, hot summer nights)
When I'm not with you
Think of me always
Love you, love you
Hey boy, where'd you get it from?
Hey boy, where did you go?
I learned my passion in the good old-fashioned
School of lover boys
[Guitar Solo]
Dining at the Ritz, we'll meet at nine (One, two, three, four, five) precisely (six, seven, eight, nine o'clock)
I will pay the bill, you taste the wine
Driving back in style, in my saloon will do quite nicely
Just take me back to yours, that will be fine
Come on and get it
Ooh, love (There he goes again)
Ooh, lover boy (Who's my good old-fashioned lover boy? Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Whatcha doin' tonight? (ooh) Hey, boy
Everything's all right, just hold on tight
That's because I'm a good old-fashioned (fashioned)
Lover boy
