Lyrics of P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing) by Michael Jackson
intro
You know you, you make me feel so good inside
I always wanted a girl just like you
Such a P.Y.T., Pretty Young Thing, ooh
verse
Where did you come from, lady?
And, ooh, won′t you take me there
Right away, won't you, baby?
Tenderoni, you′ve got to be
Spark my nature, sugar fly with me
pre-chorus
Don't you know now is the perfect time?
We can make it right, hit the city lights
Then tonight, ease the loving pain
Let me take you to the max
chorus
I want to love you (P.Y.T.)
Pretty young thing
You need some loving (T.L.C.)
Tender love and care
And I'll take you there, girl, ooh-oh
I want to love you (P.Y.T.)
Pretty young thing
You need some loving (T.L.C.)
Tender love and care
And I′ll take you there
(Anywhere you want to go) yes, I will, ooh!
verse
Nothing can stop this burning desire to be with you
Got to get to you, baby
Won′t you come, it's emergency
Cool my fire yearning
Honey, come set me free
pre-chorus
Don′t you know now is the perfect time?
We can dim the lights, just to make it right
In the night, hit the loving spot
I'll give you all that I′ve got
chorus
I want to love you (P.Y.T.)
Pretty young thing
You need some loving (T.L.C.)
Tender love and care
And I'll take you there, yes, I will, yes, I will
verse
I want to love you (P.Y.T.)
Pretty young thing
You need some loving (T.L.C.)
Tender love and care
And I′ll take you there
Yes, I will, hee-eh
