D A G 4x
Verse 1
She was his girl; he was her boyfriend
Soon be his wife; and make him her husband
A surprise on the way, any day, any day
One healthy little giggling dribbling baby boy
The wise men came three made their way
To shower him with love while he lay in the hay
Chorus
Shower him with love love love
Love love love
Love love is all around

Kept his mother Mary worried, Always out on his own
He met another Mary and for a reasonable fee,
less than reputable as known to be

His heart was full of love love love
Love love love
Love love is all around
