No one to talk with,
all by myself,
No one to walk with,
but I'm happy on the shelf
Ain't misbehavin'
saving my love for you!

I know for certain,
the one I love,
I'm through with flirtin',
it's just you I'm thinkin' of
Ain't misbehavin'
saving my love for you!

Like Jack Horner,
in the corner,
don't go nowhere,
but what do I care?
Your kisses
are worth waitin' for
Believe me!

Don't stay out late,
don't care to go!
I'm home about eight,
just me an' my radio!
Ain't misbehavin'
saving my love for you!

[ instrumental verse ]

Hmm, I don't stay out late,
don't care to go!
I'm home about eight,
just me an' my radio!
Ain't misbehavin'
saving my love for you!
