Текст песни

I'm in love

I'm in love again

I'm in love, I'm in love

And isn't it a crime

Isn't it a crying shame

That the love of my life

Should have to be another man's wife?

But I've finally found the one true love of my life

I see her Monday afternoon

She's buying eggs, I'm buying cheese

And I decide it's none too soon

To try my famous old technique I call "the tease"

So I brush up against her skin

And pat her like she was a child

And then I flash my secret grin

And give my head that little toss that drives 'em wild

She acts as though she doesn't even know I'm there

She leaves the instant that the eggs are in her clutch

She just ignores my touch

She likes me very much

And I'm thinking, oh, proud lady

You and I both know

Someday you will be mine

And we'll go to a place where the grass is cool and shady

And with a smile on your face

You'll come into my arms

And love will flow like wine

Next time I go to get the bread

I know exactly what to wear

My pants are tight, my shirt is red

And open just enough to show a little pair

And when the bag is full and warm

The way I lift it, she can tell

That every action I perform

I do it strong, I do it slow, I do it well

She asks me can't I hurry up, and when I wink

She gives a smile and, in a voice as sweet as wine

She tells me I'm a swine

She's obviously mine

And I'm singing, oh, proud lady
