Cherry Cherry


Neil Diamond's assertion -- "my baby loves me, yes, yes she does...the girl's outa sight" -- sounds as celebratory as it did 40 years ago.

Baby loves me
Yes, yes she does
Ah, the girl'ss outta sight, yeah
Says she loves me
Yes, yes she does
Gonna show me tonight, yeah

She got the way to move me, Cherry
She got the way to groove me, Cherry baby
She got the way to move me
She got the way to groove me

No, we wont tell a soul where we gone to
Girl, we do whatever we want to
Ah, I love the way that you do me
Cherry, babe, you really get to me

You aint got no right
No, no you don't Cherry baby
Ah, to be so exiting
Wont need bright lights
No, no we won't
Gonna make our own lightning

She got the way to move me, Cherry
She got the way to groove me, Cherry baby
She got the way to move me
She got the way to groove me

Tell your mama, girl, I can't stay long
We've got things we gotta catch up on
Mmm, you know, you know what I'm sayin
Can't stand still while the music is playin

She got the way to move me, TCherry
She got the way to groove me, Cherry baby
She got the way to move me
She got the way to groove me
