A Rub and a Tug
Edbo 1967 (Hospital)
Sure wish my Sweetie'd
Come help me sometime
A rub and a tug
A rub and a tug
If you don't come soon
Mama says I'll go blind
A rub and a tug
A rub and a tug
Have you seen my glasses
I think I lost my glasses
Can't keep this up
Else I'll be shaving my palms
A rub and a tug
A rub and a tug
Should put it back in my pants
Where it surely belongs
A rub and a tug
A rub and a tug
So please come home Sweetie
Make it real soon
Can't you see how I miss you
Or must I burst like a balloon
