I might not be the flashiest dresser in the room
i might not know how to look a girl in the eye
i might not have the right pick-up lines
but i'll tell you what i got
you see when i was growin' up...
i got the inside scoop
i used to watch all the fellows work down the block
that's right when they used to work, i used to watch
and when i watched i learned the lovercall, baby!
(chorus:)
if you wanna do it do it right
up and down side to side
baby we can do it for a night
don't hold me back
You gotta look sharp, fellows
oh you gotta act right, you see,
no woman in her right mind is gonna waste
her time if you ain't on time
oh oh oh...let's not talk about how i know
that i'm just here to pass down what i know to you!
you see when i was growin' up...
i got the inside scoop
i used to watch all the fellows work down the block
that's right when they used to work, i used to watch
and when i watched i learned the lovercall, baby!
(chorus)
