Buck Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Buck
You're a whole lot of man
Just take a look at your great, big hands
You know you can crush poor me in two
But gentle, oh so gentle, are the things you do
I say I never have to worry 'bout you goin' out
There ain't no other woman, ain't no need to doubt
So early to bed and early to rise
I know just what you're thinkin' by the look in your eyes

[Verse 2]
I say, Buck
So sweet is your back
I like to wash you and kiss you when you're wet
So hold me close and squeeze me 'til I sigh
Please love me, honey, 'til the day I die

[Verse 3]
I say, Buck
There ain't no other man around
Get your lover gal to calm right down
No question 'bout the way I feel for you
So gentle, oh so gentle, are the things you do

[Outro]
Oh, so gentle, oh so gentle, are the things you do
Oh, so gentle, oh so gentle, are the things you do

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
