Who's the lovin' daddy with the beautiful eyes What a
pair o' lips, I'd like to try 'em for size I'll just tell him, "Baby, won't
you swing it with me" Hope he tells me maybe, what a wing it will be So,
I said politely "Darlin' may I intrude" He said "Don't keep me waitin' when
I'm in the mood"
First I held him lightly and we started to
dance Then I held him tightly what a dreamy romance And I said "Hey,
baby, it's a quarter to three There's a mess of moonlight, won't-cha share
it with me" "Well" he answered "Baby, don't-cha know that it's rude To
keep my two lips waitin' when they're in the mood"
In the mood, that's
what he told me In the mood, and when he told me In the mood, my heart
was skippin' It didn't take me long to say "I'm in the mood now"
In
the mood for all his kissin' In the mood his crazy lovin' In the mood
what I was missin' It didn't take me long to say "I'm in the mood
now"
So, I said politely "Darlin' may I
intrude" He said "Don't keep me waitin' when I'm in the
mood"
"Well" he answered "Baby,
don't-cha know that it's rude To keep my two lips waitin' when they're in
the mood"
