Lyrics
- Night-time am a fallin’ everything is still
And the moon am a-shining from above
Cupid am a-callin’ every Jack and Jill
It’s just about the time for making love
Someone is a-waiting all alone for me
No more hesitating I must go and see
How de do dear, it’s with you dear, that I love to be
Chorus
Put your arms around me honey, hold me tight
Huddle up and cuddle up with all your might
Oh, babe, won’t you roll dem eyes, eyes that I just idolize
When they look at me my heart begins to float
Then it starts a-rockin’ like a motor boat
Oh, oh, I never knew any girl like you
- Music am a playin’ such a lovin’ glide
That my feet keep a moving to and fro
And with you a-swayin’ I’ll be satisfied
To dance until we hear the roosters crow
I love seven ‘leven I love chicken, too
Nearest thing to heaven is to be with you
For I’m spoony, moony, loony, but my love is true
