I Get a little Smack by Don A. Landhill Copyright (c) 2001, all rights reserved (with apologies to Burt Bacharach) The moment I wake up Before I put on my makeup I get a little smack from you While brushing my hair, now, And wondering what dress to wear, now, I get a little smack from you And always, and always, you'll smack me when I need it and I will love you And always, and always, although I may cry at it Oh, how I'll love you My darling, please rule me, that's how it must be not to submit, dear, Would only be heartbreak for me. My vow tightly binds me and all day my seat reminds me I got a little smack from you I don't get my back up, for I know that when I act up I get a little smack from you And always, and always, you'll smack me when I need it and I will love you And always, and always, although I may cry at it Oh, how I'll love you My darling, please rule me, that's how it must be not to submit, dear, Would only be heartbreak for me. Last night I was naughty And so of course when you caught me I got a little smack from you Today I'll behave, dear For when you see bad behavior I get a little smack from you And always, and always, you'll smack me when I need it and I will love you And always, and always, although I may cry at it Oh, how I'll love you My darling, please rule me, that's how it must be not to submit, dear, Would only be heartbreak for me. My darling believe me, For me there is no one But you. -D.A.L. August 2001
