One-two-three-four
Let me tell you all a story
'Bout my run-in with the law
I was once picked up for rowdiness
Outside my favorite bar.
But before they could arrest me
And ruin my good name
I said, "C'mere kind policeman,
And hear what I've to say."
I said, "Hey officer!
Can I make you an offer, sir?
I'll sing a love song
Dedicated to you!
Anyone can tell
You discharge your duties well
So how bout I discharge a number
Dedicated to you?
Oh, I'll do a little dance
Right here on the sidewalk
Take your night stick in my hand
And show you how a pistol's cocked
So be a sport,
You can put it in your report
That I sang a love song
Dedicated to you!
♪
What's that, you say?
This won't do?
Would you prefer a little blues?
Ooooh, oh oh oh ohhhh
Oh... ohhhohohhhhhooooooh
Oh... Oh... Oho
Hey officer!
Did you like my offer, sir?
When I sang a love song
Dedicated to you?
Don't tell me no!
I saw you tappin' your toes
When I sang a love song
Dedicated to you!
Oh I did-did-did a little dance
No woman can resist
I know you're a sucker for romanc-take these handcuffs offa my wrist
