I Taught You How (Take 2)
When you get through
Doing what every young man will do
Go on, run around, see what you can find
You come back breaking my door down every time
There's a good way you can love
And a soft way you can kiss
Everything you know how
I taught you how
You feel like you've been left in a storm
When her kisses won't keep you worm
You want to come out of the rain
Like I knew you would once again
There's true love in my navel, boo
You find me like I knew you would
You want true love right now, oh and I taught you how
When you get tired, honey
Of those cold cats
And poking beams
Right here and you know it
That's where you can get your herm hearts
And you tulip greens
When the kisses out there turn sour
And they will, you know
Right here, you can get kisses sweeter
Sweeter by the hour
Don't be ashamed
Come on, come on, come on right now
I taught you how
The way you hold her
I taught you
And the way you loving her
You know I taught you
Why don't you be honest and tell her
That I taught you
Tell all the girls that I taught you how
Tell Mary, Martha, and Jane
That Mable taught you
Ooh, the way you holding her
Doing what every young man will do
Go on, run around, see what you can find
You come back breaking my door down every time
There's a good way you can love
And a soft way you can kiss
Everything you know how
I taught you how
You feel like you've been left in a storm
When her kisses won't keep you worm
You want to come out of the rain
Like I knew you would once again
There's true love in my navel, boo
You find me like I knew you would
You want true love right now, oh and I taught you how
When you get tired, honey
Of those cold cats
And poking beams
Right here and you know it
That's where you can get your herm hearts
And you tulip greens
When the kisses out there turn sour
And they will, you know
Right here, you can get kisses sweeter
Sweeter by the hour
Don't be ashamed
Come on, come on, come on right now
I taught you how
The way you hold her
I taught you
And the way you loving her
You know I taught you
Why don't you be honest and tell her
That I taught you
Tell all the girls that I taught you how
Tell Mary, Martha, and Jane
That Mable taught you
Ooh, the way you holding her
