Lyrics

Goin' Steady

[Chorus]

Who's goin' steady?

Who's goin' steady?

Who's goin' steady with you?

Who's goin' steady?

Who's goin' steady?

Who's goin' steady with you?

[Verse 1]

You gotta cross that line and you get some

Some precious heart

I'm looking for a teenage Judy

So I can get a running start

[Chorus]

Who's goin' steady?

Who's goin' steady?

Who's goin' steady with you?

(If you're worth it)

Who's goin' steady?

Who's goin' steady?

Who's goin' steady with you?

[Verse 2]

You gotta choose me if you want me

A ripped up baseball card

You cross that line and you get some

'Cause once is not enough

I tell you, once is not enough

I tell you, once is not enough

I'll tell you once, baby

It'll fill your loving cup

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

You gotta choose me if you want me

A ripped up baseball card

You cross that line and you get some

Ooh, some precious heart

I tell you, get some precious heart

I tell you, get some precious heart

I'll tell you, get some, baby

It'll fill your loving cup

[Chorus]

Who's goin' steady?

Who's goin' steady?

Who's goin' steady with you?

(If you're worth it)

Who's goin' steady?

Who's goin' steady?

Who's goin' steady with you?

(If I like you)

Who's goin' steady?

Who's goin' steady?

Who's goin' steady with you?

(If I want it)

[Outro]

'Cause I'm steady

'Cause I'm ready

To go steady with...
