VERSE 1
If I had a nickel, tell you what I'd do
Spend it all for candy, n' give it all to you
Spend it all for candy, n' give it all to you
That's how much I love you, baby
That's how much I love you
VERSE 2
If you were a kitten, with pretty, glossy fur
I'd stroke you, oh my honey, and listen to you purr
I'd stroke you, oh my honey, and listen to you purr
'Cause that's how much I love you, baby
That's how much I love you
VERSE3
If you was a tiger, I'd hang around your den
Pester you my honey, till you let me in
Pester you my honey, till you let me in
That's how much I love you, baby
That's how much I love you
VERSE 4
If you were a horse fly, an' I an ole gray mare
Stand an' let you bite me, never move a hair
Stand an' let you bite me, never move a hair
That's how much I love you, baby
That's how much I love you
VERSE 4 NEVER HEARD THIS VERSE BEFORE
If we were to marry let me tell you what
Go an' get th parson let 'im tie th knot
Go an' get th parson let 'im tie th knot
That's how much I love you, baby
That's how much I love you
