NINE TIMES OUT OF TEN
(Hall-Blackwell)

Nine times out of ten, baby, I’ve told you
And I ain’t gonna tell you just nine times again
Aah, just how much I aim to hold you
Again and again and again
 
Little girl, it’s nine times out of ten, you’ve  refused me
And then say you refuse me nine times again
But I won’t stop until you choose me
Again and again and again
 
Well, don’t try to fight it
‘Cause it’s no use
You’re gonna find out 
I’m stubborn as a doggone mule
 
Nine times out of ten I’ve tried to kiss you
And I ain’t trying just nine times again
Well, if I missed the nine times that I’ve tried, baby
I’ll bet my life, I’ll get you on number ten, yeah
 
Well, don’t try to fight it
‘Cause baby it ain’t no use
You’re gonna find out 
I’m stubborn as a doggone mule

Nine times out of ten I’ve tried to kiss you
And I ain’t trying just nine times again
Well, if I missed the nine times that I’ve tried, baby
I’ll bet my life, I’ll get you on number ten
Umm, I’ll bet my life, I’ll get you on number ten
