Verse 1
No-thing you could say could tear me away from my guy
No-thing you could do, 'cause I'm stuck like glue to my guy
I'm stick-ing to my guy like a stamp to a letter
Like birds of the feather, we ^ stick together
I'm tell-in' you from the start, I can't be torn apart from my guy
Verse 2
No-thing you could do could make me untrue to my guy (Alto: my guy)
No-thing you could buy could make me tell a lie to my guy (Alto (hold note): my guy-- Soprano: my guy)
I gave my guy my word of honor
to be faithful,^ and I'm gonna
You best be believing I won't be deceiving my guy
Bridge
As a mat-ter of opinion, I think he's tops
My opinion is, he's the cream of the crop
As a mat-ter of taste, to be exact
He's my ideal, as a mat-ter of fact
Verse 3
No mus-cle-bound man could take my hand from my guy (Alto: my guy)
No hand-some face could ever take the place of my guy (Alto (hold note): my guy-- Soprano: my guy)
He may not be a mov-ie star,
but when it comes to bein' happy ^ we are
There's not a man today who could take me away from my guy

No mus-cle-bound man could take my hand from my guy (Alto: my guy)

but when it comes to bein' happy ^ we are
There's not a man today who could take me away from my guy (Bass/tenor:What you say?)
