1-2-3 - Song Lyrics

  • Originally performed by Gloria Estefan and the Miami Sound Machine
  • A #3 Top 40 hit from 1988
  • It was also a #1 hit on the Adult Contemporary charts
  • It was the group's 9th Top 40 hit

They tell me you're shy boy
But I want you just the same
Don't play innocent with me
You know it's not just fun and games

When I look into your eyes
So much passion burns inside
But if you need some coaxing
I will do it
Step by step there's nothing to it

1-2-3-4 come on baby say you love me
5-6-7 times
8-9-10-11 I'm just gonna keep on counting
Until you are mine

Come out of your shell boy
You know we go like hand in glove
You're afraid of giving in
But I am never giving up on your love

And no matter what it takes
I will steal your heart away
Take a chance for once you won't regret it
Want my love just come and get it

1-2-3-4 come on baby say you love me
5-6-7 times
8-9-10-11 I'm just gonna keep on counting
Until you are mine
