Because you're sweet and lovely girl I love you
Because you're sweet and lovely girl it's true
I love you more than ever girl I do

I want you at the moment I feel blue
I'm living every moment girl for you

Walk 
Walk cat walk
go Johnny go
same old tale of blues
Elmore James got nothin' on this baby 

[Continue throughout piano solo in verse format]

VERSE:

I loved you from the moment I saw you
You looked at me and that's all you had to do
I feel it now I hope you feel it too 

Because you're sweet and lovely girl I love you
Because you're sweet and lovely girl it's true
I love you more than ever girl I do
