Some years ago during a discussion about the origin of song lyrics, a friend made a statement that song lyrics were often the result of someone’s personal experience(s). I tend to agree with that. However, what could have been happening to an individual for him or her to come up with this song TITLE (see lyrics below), work out the title then give your answer to the question.


And get your heart beatin' baby
Got my timin' right I got my act all tight
It's gotta be tonight
My little school babe
Your momma says you don't
And your daddy says you won't
And I'm boilin' up inside
Ain't no way I'm gonna lose out this time
***********?
Lock your daddy out of doors
I don't need him nosin' around
***********?
Give me all your love tonight
'You're such a dirty louse go get outa my house'
That's all I ever get from your family ties
In fact I don't think I ever heard
A single little civil word from those guys
I don't give a light
I'm gonna make out all right
I've got a sweetheart hand
To put a stop to all that
Snipin' and grousin'
**********?
Take your little brother swimmin'
With a brick that's all right
**********?
Or you ain't no friend of mine
Your momma and your daddy
Gonna plague me till I die
I can't understand it
'Cause I'm a peace lovin' guy
**********?
Get that big big big big big big
Daddy out the door
**********?
Give me all your love tonight
All your love tonight

I once tried to write a song about Robert Kilroy Silk to the tune of and in the style of American Pie, but it never got beyond the first verse and chorus.
