My baby he don't talk sweet
He ain't got much to say
But he loves me, loves me, loves me
I know that he loves me anyway

Unfortunately, once allocated, points can not be removed.

A sad mistake as it was indeed FlouncingB who should have got the points

There's no sign of life
It's just the power to charm
I'm lying in the rain
But I never wave bye-bye

Yeap! Well done 😊

They played it this morning on the cheesy local radio station I listen to in the car 😊 It made me feel all "skippy". I shall now have to watch Footloose again.

And I'm phoning a cab
'Cause my stomach feels small
There's a taste in my mouth
And it's no taste at all

70s

CoffeeBeansGalore · 23/09/2020 20:14

Just like the films
There's no reason
To feel all the hard times
To lay down the hard lines

I work on the front line
I work to survive
And I sleep in a fever
So this is my life

Once I'm begging
You save her little soul
