Tood-A-Loo
Eddie Cochran · Somethin Else: Ultimate Collection [1998]
Hold me near and have no fear, let me hold you tight
I'm a fool, who's the lovin' kind
You qot me flippin' out of my mind
Tood-a-loo, I'm in love with you
Tood-a-loo, tood-a-loo, I'll be seem' you
Tood-a-loo, tood-a-loo, I'll be seem' you
Kiss me baby, say you love me tood-a-loo, tood-a-loo
Baby-baby-baby, if your heart would know
What your kisses do to me, please don't let me go
Now's the time, like the wise man said
You better go in while you're still ahead
Tood-a-loo, I'm in love with you
