I Get a little Smack

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.
