I use a part of it for my ringtone when my husband calls me. Back in the day, he was quite wanted by all the females, but he's been mine now for 20 years. So I use the part, "all the other kids would love to love you, but you're my little private joy, my private joy."

I remember first hearing it and it just sounded like he was having the time of his life when he recorded it! He's so alive on this one it's infectuous!

When eye go 2 a Prince concert or related event it's all heart up in the house but when eye log onto this site and the miasma of bitchiness is completely overwhelming!

Private Joy

U're my little secret, my private joy
I could never let another play with my toy
U're my little angel from heaven above
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh, I think I'm falling in love

And I ain't gonna tell nobody nobody 'bout my little pretty toy
All the other kids would love 2 love U but U're my little private joy
My private joy
U're my private joy

Private joy - such a pretty toy
Joy - U are my private joy

U're my little lover, orgasmatron
Only I know, only I know, baby, what turns U on
U're my little secret neon light
Girl, I wanna turn it on, turn it on, turn it on every night, ooh

I ain't gonna tell nobody nobody 'bout my little pretty toy
All the other kids would love 2 love U but U're my little private joy
My private joy
U're my private joy

Private joy - such a, such a pretty toy
Joy - U are my private joy

Shoot me up, baby, let's take a trip
I can't get enough, can't get enough of your private, private joy
(Joy, joy, joy)
Yeah!

Joy - such a, such a pretty toy
Joy - U are my private joy
Joy - shoot me up, baby, let's take a trip
Joy - I can't get enough of your private, ooh
Come on, honey, baby, get up!
Get up!

I strangled Valentino (He strangled Valentino)
U've been mine ever since (U've been his ever since)
If anybody asks U (If anybody asks U)
U belong 2 Prince!
Come on, baby, get up!
Get up! {x4}

If anybody asks you, you belong to Prince. faint
