Let me tell you 'bout a boy (girl) I know
He (She) is my baby and he (she) lives next door
Ev'ry morning 'fore the sun come up,
He (she) brings my coffee in my fav'rite cup
That's why I know, yes, I know,
Hallelujah, I just love him (her) so
When I'm in trouble and I have no friends,
I know hel'll (she'll) go with me until the end
Ev'rybody asks me how I know
I smile at them and say he (she) told me so
That's why I know, yes, I know,
Hallelujah, I just love him (her) so
Now if I call him (her) on the telephone,
And tell him (her) that I'm all alone,

By the time I count from one to four,I hear him (her) on my door
In the evening when the sun does down,
When there is nobody else around,
He (she) kisses me and he (she) holds me tight
He (And) tells me "Baby, (Daddy) ev'ry thing's all right"
That's why I know, yes, I know,
Hallelujah, I just love him (her) so
