I was born in Lil' Rock, had a childhood sweetheart
We were always hand in hand
I was high top shoes and shirt tails
Suzy was in pig tails, I know I loved her even then

You know my papa disapproved it, my mama boohooed it
But I told them time and time again
Don't you know I was made to love her
Built a world all around her, yeah, hey, hey, hey

She's been my inspiration, showed appreciation
For the love I gave her through the years
Like a sweet magnolia tree, my love blossomed tenderly
My life grew sweeter through the years

I know that my baby loves me, my baby needs me
That's why we made it through the years
I was made to love her, worship and adore her
Hey, hey, hey

All through thick and thin, our love just won't end
'Cause I love my baby, love my baby
My baby loves me, my baby needs me
And I know I ain't going nowhere

I was knee high to a chicken when that love bug bit me
I had the fever with each passing year
Oh, even if the mountain tumbles, if this whole world crumbles
By her side I'll still be standing there

'Cause I was made to love her
I was made to live for her, yeah
I was made to love her
Built my world all around her, hey, hey, hey

Ooh baby, I was made to please her
You know Stevie ain't gonna leave her
No, hey, hey, hey
