Now here I am with a pang in my heart
'Cause a sweet little woman, oh yeah, just tore it apart now
I tried not to show it but it was no use
It's like holding a hot wire now, you know what I mean
And I couldn't turn it loose now, oh
I just had a love attack, baby, now
Somebody please help me with this love attack now
Now my love life was nothing, in fact it was a blank
'Til you came along, baby, yes, you did, and put a tiger in my tank
Can't you see that I'm helpless, oh now, I'm here flat on my back
But you got me sufferin', sufferin'
Sufferin' now from a love attack now
Oh, a love attack, baby
Don't let me die with this love attack now, oh yeah, now
I've had the mumps and the measles and I've had the whooping cough now
I've been down with double pneumonia
But I was able to shake it off, yeah
But you came along and knocked me flat on my back now
And now I'm sufferin', I'm sufferin' from a love attack
And oh, I fell for you, baby, yeah, oh, just like a rock now
When you turned on your love, I was too weak
Too weak to stand a shot now
'Cause it hit me like lightning, oh
Now, it's knocked me out of my tracks
And now I'm down, down, down, down, down, down with a love attack now
Oh, somebody, somebody got to help me with this love attack right now
Come on, baby, come on, baby, and fascinate me with love
I need your love so bad now, come on now, yeah
