"Turtle Dovin'" lyrics

"Turtle Dovin'"

My baby she don't go to shows
She don't put on no fancy clothes
I never have to spend a dime
She'd rather stay home and pass the time

Turtle dovin', turtle dovin'
Kissin' and a-huggin'
She loves my loving
Turtle dovin'

Some girls they like to run around
And get all dressed up and paint the town
My baby never wants to run
Cause me and her have so much fun

Turtle dovin', turtle dovin'
Kissin' and a-huggin'
She loves my loving
Turtle dovin'

I hear the stop work whistle blow
My work is done, it's time to go
My babes is waiting at the door
I know just what she's waiting for

Turtle dovin', turtle dovin'
Kissin' and a-huggin'
She loves my loving
Turtle dovin'

Turtle dovin'
Turtle dovin'
Turtle dovin'
Turtle dovin'
Turtle dovin'
Turtle dovin'
