| Now, I can’t stand it
|
| when my baby is gone
|
| she leaves a big black hole in my chest
|
| I miss her, kiss me
|
| with them ruby red lips
|
| and squeezin' them mighty melon you know what
|
| I get no sleep
|
| when she’s not here
|
| and every minute’s like a groundhog year
|
| Ho-Di-Ko-Di-Ya-La-Ma La
|
| Set my ass on fire
|
| That’s the way my baby makes me feel
|
| Yeah, lawdy, lawdy aww miss lawdy
|
| Ho-Di-Ko-Di-Ya-La-Ma La
|
| That’s the way my baby makes me feel
|
| It’s a roller coaster ride in a big brass bed
|
| We be moving to the sousa-phonic beat
|
| Mardi Gras parading every day of the week
|
| We be second lining beating Wagners meat
|
| Oh party all night
|
| from dusk till dawn
|
| She whacks me on the head
|
| if she catches me yawning
|
| Ho-Di-Ko-Di-Ya-La-Ma La
|
| Set my ass on fire
|
| That’s the way my baby makes me feel
|
| Yeah, lawdy, lawdy aww miss lawdy
|
| Ho-Di-Ko-Di-Ya-La-Ma La
|
| That’s the way my baby makes me feel
|
| Alright, now everybody knows
|
| I’m a sucker for love
|
| but this ain’t no ordinary thing
|
| Yeah, rags to riches
|
| it don’t matter to her
|
| as long as I got my swing
|
| She eats me up like a crawfish pie
|
| I’m high and I’m happy baby
|
| like a bird in the sky
|
| Ho-Di-Ko-Di-Ya-La-Ma La
|
| Set my ass on fire
|
| That’s the way my baby makes me feel
|
| Yeah lawdy lawdy aww miss lawdy
|
| Ho-Di-Ko-Di-Ya-La-Ma La
|
| That’s the way my baby makes me feel
|
| Ho-Di-Ko-Di-Ya-La-Ma La
|
| Set my ass on fire
|
| That’s the way my baby makes me feel
|
| Yeah lawdy lawdy aww miss lawdy
|
| Ho-Di-Ko-Di-Ya-La-Ma La
|
| That’s the way my baby makes me feel
|
| Ho-Di-Ko-Di-Ya-La-Ma La set my ass on fire
|
| That’s the way my baby makes me feel
|
