You act like a prima donna
Playing so hard to get
Sitting so cool and nonchalant
Dragging on a cigarette
You keep a wall all around you
And I'll get through some day
And I want your love babe, if push comes to shove
Gonna chip that wall away
Chip away
Chip away at the stone
And I won't stop until 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 away
Chip away at the stone
And I won't stop until your love is my very own
Chip away
That's what I'm gonna do
Sweet little mama, I wanna get next to you
Chip away
Chip away at the stone
Honey, I won't stop until your love is my very own
Chip away
That's what I'm gonna do
Sweet little mamama, I wanna get next to you
Yes I do, yes I do
Chip away
Chip away at the stone
Chip away
Chip away at the stone
I won't stop, I won't stop
I won't stop, I won't stop
I won't stop
I won't stop, I won't stop
I won't stop, I won't stop
I won't stop, I won't stop
Chip it
I'm gonna nip it
All night long
