Lyrics
- I’m in love, I’m in love
Three times I’m in love
Oh boy, some girl
She’s got my brain a-whirl
I can’t eat, I can’t sleep
She’s all I’m thinking of
When she’s about
I stand right up and shout
Chorus
You’re wonderful, you’re marvelous
I’m crazy for you
I’ll tell you what
You’ve simply got me cuckoo
I tear my hair but you don’t care
What else can I do
How I rave love I crave
When we kiss I can’t behave
Those eyes, those nose
They’re driving me wild
Your style, your clothes
I’m putting it mild
I don’t know what it is you’ve got
But what you’ve got I want a lot
I’ll tell you what
You’ve simply got me cuckoo
- I’m so shy, oh, so shy
When she passes by
Oh boy, some thrill
My heart just won’t keep still
Me, oh my, I’d just die
If she should catch my eye
And day by day
She’s goin’ to hear me say
Chorus
You’re wonderful, you’re marvelous
I’m crazy for you
I’ll tell you what
You’ve simply got me cuckoo
Oh, can’t you see I’m up a tree
So what can I do
You’re not small, you’re not tall
But you’ve got what makes ’em fall
Those eyes, those lips
They’re driving me mad
Those sighs, them hips
I’m gettin’ in bad
One little kiss and then “Good-night”
You’ve got a kick like dynamite
I’ll tell you what
You’ve simply got me cuckoo
