Susaye Greene and Scherrie Payne Lyrics
"Luvbug"

(Susaye Greene-Brown)

I was sitting in misery
When love jumped right over me
He had his wings flapped across my face
He was keeping time and place
I felt so surprised
To see a luvbug before my eyes
I offered him a whisper, saying
Luvbug, luvbug, gimme love

I look in his eyes
And said luvbug, give it to me
Then he started to lie
He said luvbug is out of season
Don't give me that jive
The luvbugs known for being easy
I saw a tear in his eye
Said don't cry, sugar, didn't mean it

But I broke his face
And he was feeling out of place
He said somebody was doing him wrong
When I was really singing my song
He was getting mighty mad
His little wings were beating so fast
I offered him a whisper, saying
Luvbug, luvbug, gimme love, ooh

A litttle pat on his head
I said luvbug, give it to me
Then he started to dance
I said this little fella sure can boogie
With a wink in his eye
He springled love around and disappearing
Never saying bye
First he's here, he's gone, he's up and running
