Lyrics: Stuck on You

You can shake an apple off an apple tree
Shake-a, shake- sugar,
But you’ll never shake me
Uh-uh-uh
No-sir-ee, uh, uh
I’m gonna stick like glue,
Stick because I’m
Stuck on you

I’m gonna run my fingers thru your long black hair
Squeeze you tighter than a grizzly bear
Uh-uh-uh,
Yes-sir-ee, uh, uh
I’m gonna stick like glue
Stick, because I’m
Stuck on you

Hide in the kitchen, hide in the hall
Ain’t gonna do you no good at all
‘Cause once I catch ya and the kissin’ starts
A team o’ wild horses couldn’t tear us apart

Try to take a tiger from this daddy’s side
That’s how love is gonna keep us tied
Uh-uh-uh
Yes-sir-ee, uh, uh
I’m gonna stick like glue
Stick, because I’m
Stuck on you
