Eddy Arnold - The Lovebug Itch lyrics

When the lovebug bites you don't
Know where to scratch it keeps right on a
Biting 'til it begins to hatch
It makes the old feel young and
The poor feel rich
It's just a little thing that's
Called the lovebug itch

Oh the day I held my baby on my knee
Along came the lovebug and took a bite of me
I put my arms around her, tied a lovers hitch
I tingled and I knew I had the lovebug itch

Oh, I love her lips and I
Love 'em close to mine
I love 'em 'cause they taste like
A drop of cherry wine
I'm gonna stick to her just as if she's glue
I'm itching for her, I know she's itching too

Oh my pulse beats fast my
Fever starts to rise
My heart goes pitty pat when
I look into her eyes
I break out in a sweat and I begin to twitch
There ain't no vaccination for
The lovebug itch

When the lovebug bites you don't
Know where to scratch
It keeps right on a biting
'til it begins to hatch
It makes the old feel young
And the poor feel rich
It's just a little thing that's
Called the lovebug itch
