I went walking in with my mama one day,
when she warn me what people say,
live your life until love is found,
'cause love's gonna get you down
Take a look at the girl next door,
she's a player and a down right whore,
Jesus slows up, she wants more,
oh bad girls get you down
Singing,
Sucking too hard on your lollipop,
or love's gonna get you down,
sucking too hard on your lollipop,
or love's gonna get you down
Say love, say love,

say love, say love,
or love's gonna get you down
Mama told me what I should know,
too much candy gonna ride your soul,
if she loves you, let her go,
'cause love only gets you down
Take a look at the boy like me,
never stood on my own two feet,
Know I'm blue, as I can be,
oh love couldn't get me down
Singing,
sucking too hard on your lollipop,
or love's gonna get you down,
sucking too hard on your lollipop,
or love's gonna get you down
Say love, say love,
or love's gonna get you down
say love, say love,

I went walking with my mama one day,
when she warn me what people say,
live your life until love is found,
or love's gonna get you down

or love's gonna get you down,
sucking too hard on your lollipop,
or love's gonna get you down
Say love say love, say love say love,
or love's gonna get you down
say love say love, say love say love,
or love's gonna get you down
Mama told me what I should know,
too much candy gonna ride your soul,
if she loves you, let her go,
'cause love only gets you down
Whoa oh, whoa oh, whoa oh, lollipop
Whoa oh, whoa oh, whoa oh, lollipop
Sucking too hard on your lollipop,
or love's gonna get you down,
say,
sucking too hard on your lollipop,
or love's gonna get you down!
