I was born in Newark
Had a childhood sweetheart
We were always hand in hand

He wore hightop shoes and shirt tails
Nip was in pig tails
I know I loved him even then

You know some disapproved it
They even boohooed it
But I told them time and time again

You know I was made to love him
Build my world around him
Yeah! Hey, hey, hey.

He's been my inspiration,
Showed appreciation
For the love I gave him through the years

Like a sweet magnolia tree
My love blossomed tenderly
My life grew sweeter through the years

I know that my baby loves me
My baby needs me
That's why we made it through the years

I was made to love him
Worship and adore him
Yes say! Hey, hey, hey.

All through thick and thin
Our love just won't end,
'Cause I love my baby, love my baby. Ah!

My baby loves me
My baby needs me
I know I ain't going nowhere

I was just a little thang
When that love bug bit me,
I had the fever with each passing year

If oceans tumble
And the whole world crumbles
By his side I'll still be standing there

'Cause I was made to love him
I was made to live for him say yeah!
Ah, I was made to love him
Build my world all around him
Say hey, hey, hey.

I love my baby
Nip ain't goin' nowhere,
Say Hey, hey, hey.
Say Hey, hey, hey.
Hey, hey, hey

Oooh hey I love him uhahh
You don't know

Built my world all around him say
Hey, hey, hey
(Lauren: Naa Naa!)

Ooooh!

Can't cha' tell y'all
Hey, hey, hey
Been my inspiration,
Showed me appreciation
Hey, hey, hey
