No one to talk with,
all by myself,
No one to walk with,
but I'm happy on the shelf
Ain't misbehavin' . . .
saving my love for you!
I know for certain,
the one I love,
I'm through with flirtin',
it's just you I'm thinkin' of
Ain't misbehavin' . . .
saving my love for you!
Like Jack Horner,
in the corner,
don't go nowhere,
but what do I care?
Your kisses . . .
are worth waitin' for
Believe me!
Don't stay out late,
don't care to go!
I'm home about eight,
just me an' my radio!
Ain't misbehavin' . . .
saving my love for you!
[ instrumental verse ]
Hmm, I don't stay out late,
don't care to go!
I'm home about eight,
just me an' my radio!
Ain't misbehavin' . . .
saving my love for you!
