When I saw your smilin' face 

Spreadin' joy all over the place 

I said, 'Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo' 

Please save me from going crazy 

'Cause you're givin' me spasms, baby! 

I went to the doctor, the doctor said 

Without your love I'd soon be dead 

I said, 'Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo' 

Please save me from goin' crazy 

'Cause you're givin' me spasms, baby! 

Oh what a fit, I alway get 

A-when you touch my shakin' hand 

If ya tell me this ain't love 

I know right away you don't understand 

You kiss me once, um-hmm 

I ask for more 

You kiss me twice, woo! 

I hit the floor 

I said, 'Woo-ooo-ooo' 

Please save me, from goin' crazy 

Oh, you givin' me spasms, baby! 

(Instrumental and guitar) 

Oh what a fit, I always get 

A-when ya touch my shakin' hand 

If ya tell me this ain't love 

I know by the way ya don't understand 

You squeeze me tight, hmm 

I got the feelin'! 

You squeeze me tighter 

And I hit the Ceilin! 

I said, Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooh 

Please save me, from goin' crazy 

Ooh, you givin' me spasms, baby!
