Lyrics

Tell me, tell me, what did you do to me?
I just got a thrill that was new to me
When your two lips were pressed to mine
When you held me, I wasn’t snuggling
You should know I really was struggling
I’ve only met you, and I shouldn’t let you, but

Refrain
Oh, do it again, I may say, “No, no, no, no, no” but do it again
My lips just ache to have you take, the kiss that’s waiting for you
You know if you do, you won’t regret it, come and get it
Oh, no one is near, I may cry, “Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh” but no one will hear
Mama may scold me ’cause she told me, it is naughty, but then
Oh, do it again, please do it again
