Lyrics
1. Pretty soon, Dear, ’twill be June, Dear
That means vacation you know
I’ve been dreaming, I’ve been scheming
Wondering to what place I’ll go
But this worries me
There are many, but not any
Where I would care to be
But each one would do
If I just had you
To spend my vacation with me
Chorus:
Let me spend my vacation with you, Dear
Let me spend my vacation with you
Up in the mountains and down by the sea
Any old place where you happen to be
We can spoon, spoon, spoon
With the world in tune
Wherever you go is the best place I know
Let me spend my vacation with you
2. If you’re wishing to go fishing
I’ll be a fisherman, too
If the ocean’s not your notion
Well, then the mountains will do
Or we’ll stay at home
I don’t care, Dear, anywhere, Dear
It’s all the same to me
It isn’t the place
The facts in the case
Are that I like your company
