I was born in Lil' Rock,
Had a childhood sweetheart;
We were always hand in hand.
I was hightop shoes and shirt tails,
Suzy was in pig tails;
I know I loved her even then.
You know my papa disapproved it,
My mama boo-hooed it,
But I told them time and time a-gain;
"Don't you know I was made to love her?
Built a world all a-round her",
Yah! hey, hey, hey.
She's been my inspiration,
Sh-owed appreci-ation;
For the love I gave her,
Through the years.
Like a sweet magnolia tree,
My love blossmed tender-ly,
My life grew sweeter,
Through the years.
I know that my baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
That's why we made it,
Through the years.
I was made to love her,
Wor-ship and a-dore her,
Hey, hey, hey.
All through thick and thin,
Our love just won't end,
'Cos I love my baby, love my baby.
Aah !
My baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
And I know I ain't going no-where.
I was knee high to a chicken,
When that love bug bit me,
I had the fever with,
Each pa-ssing year.
Oh, even if the mountain tumbles,
If this whole world crumbles,
By her side I'll,
Still be standing there.
'Cos I was made to love her,
I was made to live for her,
Ye-ea-ah!
Ah, I was made to love her,
Built my world all a-round her,
Hey, hey, hey.
Ooh baby, I was made to please her,
You know Stevie ain't,
Gonna leave her, no,
Hey, hey, hey.
Ooh wee baby, my baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
Hey, hey, hey.
