Sweet lady would you be my
Sweet love for a lifetime
I'll be there when you need me
Just call and receive me, sweet lady

Now any other day
I would play it cool
But I can't now cause I want you
See I'm hooked on
How you flex your style
And I wanna talk for a little while
I never really seen your type
But I must admit that I kinda like
So maybe if you have the time
We could talk about you being my

Sweet lady would you be my
Sweet love for a lifetime
I'll be there when you need me
Just call and receive me
Sweet lady would you be my
Sweet love for a lifetime

Now on the regular
I would waste time but I don't want to
Cause you're so damn fine
And I heard that you were taken
But that don't have to stop you from makin
Late night phone calls on the telephone
About your fantasies and ways to get it on
When you need me I will be
There for you my sweet lady

Sweet lady would you be my
Sweet love for a lifetime

Just call and receive me
Sweet lady would you be my
Sweet love for a lifetime

Say you will be my lady
I've got to have all your love
So I wont even front
Just say you'll give it to me
Don't wanna hear the maybe's
And I will give you all my heart
If you say you'll be my baby

Sweet lady would you be my
Sweet love for a lifetime

Sweet lady would you be my
Sweet love for a lifetime
