Fabian Tiger Lyrics

Tiger Lyrics

Written by Ollie Jones
Peaked at # 3 in 1959
Fabian Forte's all-time
biggest hit, which ain't sayin' much 'cause he
only had 8 in the Top
40!
Hey. lumpa sugar, you look kinda sweet
Cuter than a baby walkin' down
the street
When I look into your eyes, I wanna leap
I can't conceal that
you make me feel
        Like a tiger, ooh, ooh, ooh, like a tiger
      
 Ooh, ooh, ooh, just to see you smile nearly drives me wild
        I wanna
growl    wow!
I'm feelin' stronger than a grizzly bear
Soarin' like an
eagle flyin' through the air
When I get you in my arms, you'd better
beware
I go insane 'cause I can't be tamed
        Like a tiger, ooh,
ooh, ooh, like a tiger
        Ooh, ooh, ooh, just to see you smile nearly
drives me wild
        I wanna growl    wow!
BRIDGE:
               
You keep my heart jumpin' like a kangaroo
                Floatin' like an
onion in a bowl of stew
                Baby, ev'ry time you come in
view
                I run like an antelope to get to you
I'm your tiger
and you're my mate
Hurry up, buttercup, and don't be late
I might get mad
if I have to wait
Come right now 'cause I'm on the prowl
        Like a
tiger, ooh, ooh, ooh, like a tiger
        Ooh, ooh, ooh, just to see you
smile nearly drives me wild
        I wanna growl    wow!

BRIDGE:
                You keep my heart jumpin' like a
kangaroo
                Floatin' like an onion in a bowl of stew
       
        Baby, ev'ry time you come in view
                I run like an
antelope to get to you
I'm your tiger and you're my mate
Hurry up,
buttercup, and don't be late
I might get mad if I have to wait
Come right
now 'cause I'm on the prowl
        Like a tiger, ooh, ooh, ooh, like a
tiger
        Ooh, ooh, ooh, just to see you smile nearly drives me wild

       I wanna growl    wow!
