I'm gonna pack all my loving in a shoebox, babe
I'm gonna seal it real good with packaging tape
I'm gonna put it in my closet, sit down and wait
Til my baby gets home to me
Well, you might get to giggling 'cause my love's
Not in a great big shipping container or packaging crate
But when lovin's real good it comes in concentrate
So, my shoebox lovin' will do
I tried to sew it up in my heart
But the doctor said "No, sir!"
He just wouldn't do it
So, I tried to put it in a canning jar
But that wouldn't do
You could see right through it
So, I put my lovin' in a shoebox
I wrapped it up for my baby and me
I tried to sew it up in my heart
But the doctor said "No, sir!"
He just wouldn't do it
So, I tried to put it in a canning jar
But that wouldn't do
You could see right through it
So, I put my lovin' in a shoebox
I wrapped it up for my baby and me
Uh-huh, I wrapped it up for my baby and me
Yes sir, I wrapped it up for my baby and me
