The Love Bug
What just happened yesterday
Must have been dreaming I guess
Met a beautiful stunning young lady
Left me in a helluva mess
Always thought I was in total control
But she knocked me back on my ass
Drooling from my gaping mouth
A totally out-of-control mess
Can't believe her feminine guile
Don't get me wrong, I ain't complaining
This is what love's all about
It belts you hard on the side of the head
Always prided myself in keeping cool
But exceptions still do happen
If you'd asked me a couple of days ago
Can't imagine it slackening
Just goes to show you my dear friends
No one's immune to the love bug
You could be as old as a hundred and six
Can still affect you like a drug
