Just a little lovin', early in the mornin'
Beats a cup of coffee for startin' off the day.
Just a little lovin', when the world is yawnin',
Makes you wake up feelin' good things are coming your way

This old world wouldn't be half as bad,
It wouldn't be half as sad,
If each and ev'rybody in it had
Just a little lovin', early in the mornin'
A little extra somethin' to kinda see them through.
Nothin' turns the day on, really gets it dawnin',
Like a little bit of lovin'
From some lovin' someone like you.
