HE WAS SITTING
ON THE CORNER
WITH A BOTTLE OF BEER
AND THE SAME
SHOPPING CART
HE'D BEEN PUSHING
FOR YEARS
A BIG SMILE
ON HIS FACE
LIKE THE FIRST DAY
OF SPRING
ALL THE PEOPLE
LOOKED THE OTHER WAY
BUT THEY HEARD HIM
SING
AND HE SANG LOVE
LOVE IS A SWEET THING
HE SANG LOVE
LOVE IS A SWEET THING
SHE SHOT OUT OF TEXAS
LIKE A BULLET
FROM A GUN
WITH A VAN
FULL OF HIPPIES
IN A BAND ON THE RUN
SHE DIDN'T
WANNA BE FAMOUS
SHE JUST WANTED
TO PLAY
AT OLD DIVE BARS
AND POOL HALLS
SHE GOT UP ON STAGE
AND SHE SANG LOVE
LOVE IS A SWEET THING
AH YES IT IS
SHE SANG LOVE
LOVE IS A SWEET
SWEET THING
IT'S EVERYWHERE
YOU LOOK
IF YOU LOOK
HARD ENOUGH
IT'S REALLY NOT
TOO HARD TO SEE
YEAH AND ONCE
YOU'VE PUT YOUR ARMS
AROUND IT
YOU CAN NEVER GET
TOO MUCH
LOVE IS A SWEET
SWEET THING
YEAH EH HEH EH
OH OH HO OH
OOH OOH
YEAH EH OOH OOH
LOVE IS A SWEET THING
IT'S IN THE SMILE
OF A STRANGER
IT'S IN THE EYES
OF A CHILD
ON THE CORNER
OF A CROWDED STREET
YEAH
IT'S EVERYWHERE
AROUND US
IT'S ALWAYS
GROWING WILD
LOVE IS A SWEET
SWEET THING

LOVE IS A SWEET THING
