you act like a prima donna   playing so hard to get   sittin' so cool and nonchalant   draggin' on a cigarette      you keep a wall all around ya   'n I'll get through some day   'n I want your love babe, if push comes to shove   gonna chip that wall away      chip away   chip away at the stone   I won't stop 'til your love is my very own   chip away   that's what I'm gonna do   sweet little mama I wanna get next to you      you stand like a marble statue   trying to look so hard   all decked out in your antique dress   while the boys all promenade      even a rock will crumble   if you strike it night and day   if hammer I must, I'm gonna get through your crust   gonna chip that stone away      chip it, I'm gonna nip it, all night long
