Lyrics
- Tho it’s a fickle age
With flirting all the rage
Here is one bird with self-control
Happy inside my cage
I know who I love best
Thumbs down for all the rest
My love was given, heart and soul
So it can stand the test
Chorus
No one to talk with, all by myself
No one to walk with, but I’m happy on the shelf
Ain’t misbehavin’, I’m savin’ my love for you
I know for certain the one I love
I’m thru with flirtin’, it’s just you I’m thinkin’ of
Ain’t misbehavin’, I’m savin’ my love for you
Little Jack Horner in the corner
Don’t go no-where, what do I care
Your kisses are worth waitin’ for, believe me
I don’t stay out late, don’t care to go
I’m home about eight, just me and my radio
Ain’t misbehavin’, I’m savin’ my love for you
- Your type of man is rare
I know you really care
That’s why my conscience never sleeps
When you’re away somewhere
Sure was a lucky day
When fate sent you my way
And made you mine alone for keeps
Ditto to all you say
