Shoppin' Around Lyrics
Elvis Presley
Lyrics
You got the huggin'est arms
The thrillin'est eyes
You're just my style
And you're just the right size
Gonna stop, shoppin' around
I'm gonna stop shoppin' around
'Cause I found the girlie I’m lookin' for
Oh, the very first time
You touched my lips
Took my little red book
And I tore it to bits
Ain't gonna be, searchin' no more
I'm gonna stop shoppin' around
'Cause I found the girlie I’m lookin' for
Ain't no other dolly I’m wantin' to hold
Hey, hey, baby
I really am sold on you
Such a pretty little package
I never did see
Gonna wrap you up
And take you home with me
I'm thrilled like never before
I'm gonna stop shoppin' around
'Cause I found the girlie I’m lookin' for
Ain't no other dolly I’m wantin' to hold
Hey, hey, baby
I really am sold on you
Such a pretty little package
I never did see
Gonna wrap you up
And take you home with me
I'm thrilled like never before
I'm gonna stop shoppin' around
'Cause I found the girlie I’m lookin' for
I'm gonna stop, uh shoppin' around
I'm gonna stop, shoppin' around
I'm gonna stop, shoppin' around
