Yeah, I'm a shy young man with a real big heart I still haven't found where I belong But you know, my sweet Lord gave me just one thing, darling I know how to write one hell of a song Yeah, I know how to write one hell of a song This is what the Lord

Was he handsome? Was I drunk? Did momma give me hell? Sweet young thing of sixteen Thought I'd step out one night I longed to get the thrilling life I've missed I met a youth A bit uncouth Although he seemed alright

The moon is high and the night is young Come on and meet me C'mon sweet thing Won't you climb on out of your window While the world is sleeping And there's no way I'll be leaving 'Till we're kissing on the porch swing Oh my little sweet thing Sweet thing

Let's do it again 'Cause I love to make sweet love to you baby I wanna go all night long Don't stop please don't stop please please don't stop it You sweet young thing you Whatever you do Lord knows you do it nice and easy You keep it nice and long You
