Love is wild in her.

I confuse her love with the sea

She is a rare and emerald fantasy told to me

And to me it seems that she lives in a mystery

But her kisses!

I dig her kisses

While washing the dishes or feeding the fishes

It’s her kisses.

Her k-k-k-k-k-k-kisses

It’s her kisses.

Kisses that’ll make you holler loudly

That you’re glad enough to be a man

And in the evening — later — after dark

She quietly reveals to me all her miracles

Flying all up around me everywhere

Just like a fountain springing up around my eyes — a love!

I’m in a shower of a lovely one

She makes the sun rise and set for me

Oh, gotta' make her stay

Because she’s got a wiggle that’ll make a clock stop

I dig her even when we’re apart

Digging on my baby’s really getting me high

& making me sigh & helping me fly

Back to the woman who could tease old Frankenstein’s suture-boy to living

Moxie is as moxie does & she is moxie with the kind of moxie love she’s giving

And I know she’ll never ever need forgiving

With kisses that will make you say you’re glad enough to be a man

And she giggles when she talks

And she’s happy if we go to the races & party or not

And she squeezes all the living daylights out of me

And if I ever should sever the tether that keeps us together

Forever where never a tear or a sorrow could weather

The amorist passion that flashes from in her eyes

— I'd be a dunce —

If i should ever try to walk or try to stray into any other woman’s arms

Because I dig her kisses —

The kind that I like because they’re warm & tasty

And they’re good and chewy and I like 'em

And you would dig them too, if you could ever get

A kiss from my sweet miss

But we will be kissing and kissing & so you’ll never ever

Get a taste of heaven — that I know & guarantee that you will never see

A bucket of loving is what she brings to me.

She is my sweetie

With kissing — loving — hugging that’l make you glad just to be a man
