Lyrics:
U work so hard, U really do
I don't think that anyone could ever work as hard as U
Hot desert sun, U can feel the heat
Every drop of sweat on Ur brow is well earned
So U best believe

I got a thousand hugs and kisses 4 U when U come back home, baby
(Ooh woo)
I got a thousand hugs and kisses 4 U when U come back home, baby
(Ooh woo)

When U give 'em Ur all, and still it's only second best
U can come and lay Ur head upon Ur baby's chest
Every one of Ur worries
(All Ur worries)
All Ur miseries
(All Ur miseries)
U can put them in a little boat and ship them off 2 sea
'Cause

I got a thousand hugs and kisses 4 U when U come back home, baby
(Ooh woo)
I got a thousand hugs and kisses 4 U when U come back home, baby
(Ooh woo)

I got a thousand hugs and kisses
4 U when U come back home
Uh, come here!

The world can be
Well 2 put it frankly
Such a bitch sometimes
Seems like love that lasts forever
Is kinda hard 2 find
Most of the people we know just lookin' 4 a reason 2 cry
As long as U got me I got Ur back and this is why

U work so hard, U really do
I don't think that anyone could work as hard as U
U can lock the door (lock the door)
U better turn off the phone (turn off Ur phone)
'Cause I'm gonna give U a thousand reasons why we need 2 be alone

Hey baby
I got a thousand hugs 4 U
And when U come back home
Sugar baby

I wanna hold U
Tie U up in lace
And I wanna kiss U
Kiss U all over your face
I wanna love U all up and down
Give U love like U never had
Blindfold, gagged, and bound
I'm wanna love U, baby
One time
Two time
Three time

I got a thousand hugs and kisses 4 U when U come back home, baby
Love U up and love U down
Love U 'til you make them sounds
