Crickets Sing For Annamaria (Ao Vivo)

Hey Maria, Papa said you better go to bed

Maria, Mama said you better go to bed

And little sister said you better go to bed

The older brother said you heard what Papa said

You better say good night, you better shut the light

And Papa told you, no, you can't go out tonight

But Papa didn't know Maria had a date

And couldn't let him wait

So in a little while

She waited till the lights were low

She went out the window to her beau, and so

There's a lot of huggin' then, a lot of kissin' then

A lot of huggin' him, a lot of kissin' him

A lot of happy talk, a lot of moon above

But very little time

But very little time to make a lot of love

To make a lot of love which is a normal thing

To make a lot of love for, it was summertime

When all the crickets sing and in the summertime

When anyone's in love

The crickets sing a happy song

But they didn't do their repertoire for long

Suddenly the Papa came and then the Mama came

And then the sister came and then the brother came

And then the uncle came and then the cousin came

An even dozen came

And I can tell you this, it was a dirty shame

Because the Papa came and then the Mama came

And then the sister came and then the brother came

And then the cousin came and even dozen came

And I can tell you this

Do-do-do-do

When anyone's in love

The crickets sing a happy song

But they didn't do their repertoire for long

Suddenly the Papa came and then the Mama came

And then the sister came and then the brother came

And then the uncle came and then the cousin came

An even dozen came

And I can tell you this, it was a dirty shame

Because the Papa came and then the Mama came

And then the sister came and then the brother came

And then the cousin came an even dozen came

And I can tell you this, it was a dirty shame

Because the Papa came and then the Mama came
