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
I'll get through some day
I want your love babe
But push come shove
Gonna chip that stone away

Chip away
Chip away at the stone
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
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
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

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
