"Lovergirl" is the first single from Teena Marie's 1984 album, Starchild. The song became Marie's biggest hit, peaking at #4 on the Billboard Hot 100. She wrote and produced the song.
In 2010, Sy Smith performed the song as tribute to the late singer during her Sy Smith & Mark de Clive-Lowe Tour. She later recorded her own interpretation of the song titled "Teena (Lovergirl Syberized)", which appears on her fourth album "Fast and Curious".
Hee...
Sugar pop
Funky pops
Coffee, tea or me, baby, touch© ole
My opening line might be a bit pass©
But don't think that I don't know what I'm feeling for you
'Cause I got a vibe on you the first time that I saw you, saw you
I need your love and I won't bring no pain
A little birdie told me that you feel the same
I'm for the real and for you I'm true blue
Let's make a deal, sugar, all I want to do is be your one and only lover
I just want to be your lovergirl
I just want to rock your world
Hey...hey...hey...
Hook, line and sinker baby, that's how you caught me
My second verse might be a bit old hat
But don't think that I don't know what it's doing to me
'Cause I got a vibe on you the first time you saw through me, through me
I need your love and I won't bring no pain
A little birdie told me that you feel the same
I'm for the real and for you I'm true blue
Let's make a deal, sugar, all I want to do is be your one and only lover
I just want to be your lovergirl
I just want to rock your world
Hey...hey...hey...
I just want to be your lovergirl
I just want to rock your world
Hey...hey...hey...
Baby, let me groove you
Let me groove into your love
I just want to be your lovergirl
Let me prove it to you
Baby, let me rock your world
I just want to rock your world
Baby, let me soothe you
Let me smooth into your love
I just want to be your lovergirl
Let me prove it to you
Baby, let me rock your world
I just want to rock your world
Coffee, tea or me, baby, touch© ole
My opening line might be a bit pass©
But don't think that I don't know what I'm feeling for you
'Cause I got a vibe on you the first time that I saw you, whoa...
When the push comes to shove
And you need a little love
Let me put some rock into your world
Call me up don't be shy
For my love will make you high
I just want to be your lovergirl
