When i saw your smilin' face
Spreadin' joy all over the place
I said, 'ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo'
Please save me from going crazy
'cause you're givin' me spasms, baby!

I went to the doctor, the doctor said
Without your love i'd soon be dead
I said, 'ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo'
Please save me from goin' crazy
'cause you're givin' me spasms, baby!

Oh what a fit, i alway get
A-when you touch my shakin' hand
If ya tell me this ain't love
I know right away you don't understand

You kiss me once, um-hmm
I ask for more
You kiss me twice, woo!
I hit the floor

I said, 'woo-ooo-ooo'
Please save me, from goin' crazy
Oh, you givin' me spasms, baby!

(instrumental and guitar)

Oh what a fit, i always get
A-when ya touch my shakin' hand
If ya tell me this ain't love
I know by the way ya don't understand

You squeeze me tight, hmm
I got the feelin'!
You squeeze me tighter
And i hit the ceilin!

I said, ooo-ooo-ooo-ooh
Please save me, from goin' crazy

Ooh, you givin' me spasms, baby!
