Lyrics

Yeah, right

Did you hear about my baby? she come around
She come round here, her head to the ground?
Come round here just about midnight
She makes me feel so good, make me feel all right

She come round my street, now
She come to my house
Knock upon my door
Climbing up my stairs--one, two, three
Come on baby
Here she is in my room, oh boy
Hey what's your name?
How old are you?
Where'd you go to school?

Well, now that we know each other a little bit better
Why don't you come over here and make me feel all right!

Gloria--g-l-o-r-i-a
Gloria--g-l-o-r-i-a
Gloria--g-l-o-r-i-a
Gloria--g-l-o-r-i-a

You were my queen and I was your fool
Riding home after school
You took me home
To your house
Your father's at work
Your mama's out shopping around
Check me into your room
Show me your thing
Why'd you do it baby?

Getting softer--slow it down, etc

Now you show me your thing
Wrap your legs around my neck
Wrap your arms around my feet
Wrap your hair around my skin
I'm gonna huh--all right, ok, yeah

It's getting harder--it's getting too darn fast, etc

Come on, now, let's get it on
Too late, too late, too late, too late, too late
Make me feel all right!

Gloria--g-l-o-r-i-a
Gloria--g-l-o-r-i-a
Gloria--g-l-o-r-i-a
Gloria--g-l-o-r-i-a

Keep the whole thing going, baby!
