When I first met you baby
My heart it skipped a beat
Just like mama's old time melodies
It sweeped me off my feet
I've been the life of the party
And I've known just what to say
But those eyes they got me stammering lord
When you, you come my way
And I don't know what I'm 'spose to do
I'm hooked got to get close to you
But I can't keep my cool
I can't keep my cool
Around you
Yeah, I can't keep my cool
From the first day I saw you baby
To the day that we wed
Our love has grown stronger baby
Since those two words we said
Now that I'm older
You'd think I'd learn a thing or two
But your light it shines brighter baby
And my knees still goin' weak over you
And you know I still feel the same
Every time you call out my name
But I can't keep my cool
I can't keep my cool
Around you
I can't keep my cool
And I can't keep my cool
Baby, oh, I can't keep my cool
Around you
I can't keep my cool
And I don't know what I'm 'spose to do
I still loose my head over you
