Gonna find my baby gonna hold her tight
F G7
Gonna grab some afternoon delight

My mottos always been when it's right it's right

Why wait until the middle of a cold dark night
F G7
When every things a little clearer in the light of day
F G7
And we know the night is always gonna be here anyway
C
Thinking of you's working up my appetite
F G7
Looking forward to a little after noon delight

Rubbing sticks and stones together makes the sparks ignite
F G7
And the thought of rubbing you is getting so exciting
C G7 C G7 C Am
Sky rockets in flight after noon de light

After noon de light after noon de light
Started out this morning feeling so polite
F G7
I always thought a fish could not be caught who didn't bite

But you got some bait awaitin' and I think I might
F G7
Like nibbling a little after noon delight

We can make a lot of loving 'fore the sun gone down
Repeat #3,4
