Lyric Looking For A Sweetie (1967)

Here s another number. It was made … it was recorded in the 30s.
It was a steal from this number. You know the number, “Confessin ?
Isn t the right lyrics. The right title of the song is, “Looking For A Little
Sweetie”. Rudy Vallee stole the number, and cause it wasn t copyrighted,
during that time I was working with ah, with ah, Chick Webb s band. And
here s the right lyrics to that song. [spoken words – Lonnie Johnson]


Looking for my a little sweetie, someone I can call my own.
When I find that certain someone, I ll take her home.
Cause I m longing for the lovin .

Just a little kiss from you dear, promise me that you ll always will be true.
There s so many I know, but I ll always be faithful to you.

When we take our honeymoon, we can make that non-stop flight.
We can do a lots of spooning and lovin by the starlight, oh baby.

We can save a lots of money, and build that bungalow for two.
If that certain sweet someone, would only be you.

I m confessin that I love you, tell me that you love me to.
I m confessin that I love you, honest I do.
I need you every moment.

In your eyes, I read such strange things, but your lips deny they re true.
Will your answer really change the thing that s making me blue?

I m afraid someday you ll leave me, sayin “Can t we still be friends?”
If you go you know it will grieve me, my whole life on you depends, oh baby.

And my guessin that you re rid of me, and my dreaming dreams of you it s all in vain.
I m confessin that I love you, all over again.


See what I mean? The whole song, all the way down. [spoken words – Lonnie Johnson]
