In The Mood

Who’s the livin’ daddy with the beautiful eyes?

What a pair of 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 sa    id don’t keep me waitin’ when I’m in t       he m   ood.”

First I held him lightly and we started to dance;

Then I held her tightly — what a dreamy romance!

And I said, “Hey, baby, it’s a quarter to three…

There’s a mess of moonlight, won’t you share it with me?”

“Well,” he answered, “Baby, don’t you know that it’s rude

To k    eep my two lips waitin’ when they’re in t       he m   ood?”

In the mood       — that’s what she told me,

In the mood       — and when she told me

In the mood       — my heart was skippin’;

It didn’t take me long to say, “I’m in     the m     ood now.”

In the mood (oh joy) for all her kissin’,

In the mood (oh joy) her crazy lovin’,

In the mood (oh boy) what I was missin’

It didn’t take me long to say “I’m in     the m     ood now.”

In the mood       — that’s what she told me,

In the mood       — and when she told me

In the mood       — my heart was skippin’;

It didn’t take me long to say, “I’m in     the m     ood now.”

In the mood (oh joy) for all her kissin’,

In the mood (oh joy) her crazy lovin’,

In the mood (oh boy) what I was missin’

It didn’t take me long to say “I’m in     the m     ood now.”
