- Verse:
- Tho it's a fickle age, With
flirting all the rage,
Here is one bird with self control, Happy inside my cage.
I know who I love best, Thumbs down for all the rest,
My love was given, heart and soul, So it can stand the test.
-
- Chorus:
- No one to talk with, all
by myself, No one to walk with, but I'm happy on the shelf,
Ain't misbehavin', I'm savin my love for you.
I know for certain the one I love, I'm thru with flirtin', it's
just you I'm thinkin' of,
Ain't misbehavin', I'm savin' my love for you.
Like Jack Horner in the corner, don't go nowhere, what do I care,
Your kisses are worth waitin' for, believe me.
I don't stay out late, don't care to go, I'm home about eight,
just me and my radio,
Ain't misbehavin', I'm savin' my love for you.
