Lover doll, oh lover doll (lover doll)
Lover doll, lover doll (lover doll)
You're the cutest lover doll
That I ever did ever see
Let me tell you lover doll
You were meant, just meant for me


On the first time that I saw you
How I fell for your cuddly charms
Lover doll I'm crazy for you
Let me rock you in my arms


* I'm so glad I found you
Never thought dollies came full grown
I'm gonna tie a ribbon around you
Wrap you up and take you home


** I would never treat you badly
Like a cast away broken toy
Lover doll I love you madly
Let me be your lover boy


* Repeat


** Repeat


*** Lover doll, lover doll (lover doll, lover doll)
Lover doll, lover doll (lover doll, lover doll)
Lover doll, lover doll (lover doll, lover doll)
Let me be your lover boy


*** Repeat
Let me be your lover boy
Let me be your lover boy
