Juicy Fruit
you now very well what you are
your my sugar thang my chocolate star
I've had a few but not that many
but you're the only one that gives me good and plenty
Juicy Fruit---juicy
Candy rain coming down
taste in my mind
and spread you all around
here I am oh this loves for you
hey baby swee as morning dew
close my eyes oh what fantasy
and yur right here with me
Juicy
Cherry blossom kiss
is what you givin'
makes my body rock
keeps me sizzlin'
do what you will
I don't care
I'll be your lollipop
you can lick me everywhere
Juicy Fruit---your so (juicy) Juicy
juicy fruit---juicy
Here I am this loves for you
hey baby your sweet as honey dew
close my eyes oh what fantasy
and your right here with me
Juicy---Juicy Fruit (repeat until end)
