To-to-to-to-to-to, silly, eh
Wetback
...
Silly
How do you want me to love you
To love you, if you have me working?
Silly, silly
If at night I can't sleep, at work
At work I'm thinking, silly
I can't stand this situation anymore, I can't stand it anymore
But this happens to me just for loving you so much
Mom told me once: "son, don't get married"
And now she says: "it was fine, you brought this on yourself"
Silly
How do you want me to love you
To love you, if you have me working?
Silly, silly
If at night I can't sleep, at work
At work I'm thinking, silly
I can't stand this situation anymore, I can't stand it anymore
But this happens to me just for loving you so much
Mom told me once: "son, don't get married"
And now she says: "it was fine, you brought this on yourself"
