Love knocks once and never later
Slicker than an alligator
Hotter than a red hot 'tater
Dog-gone it baby I'm in love
Love's a bug that up and bit me
I don't know or care what hit me
I'll be yours if you permit me
Dog-gone it baby I'm in love
Love is like atomic bomb
Works like the same effect
The heart it hits is blown to bits
And what else could you expect
Love can make a fellar dizzy
Throw him plumb into a tizzy
Even keep a loafer busy
Dog-gone it baby I'm in love
Love can tame the wildest rover
Hits you hard and bowls you over
Makes you happy as a cow in clover
Dog-gone it baby I'm in love
Mustard cutting stage or older
Eskimo's are even colder
Warms you up and makes you bolder
Dog-gone it baby I'm in love
Gophers go for other gophers
Honey temps the bee
Mouse or man it's nature's plan
And it's getting the best of me
You're the cause you gorgeous creature
Let's make this a double feature
And I'll go and fetch the preacher
Dog-gone it baby I'm in love
