Lyrics Spams - George Barnes, Little Willie John

Spams

Recorded Jan 4, 1958 King Single #5108
With Kelly Owens-piano
Evrett Barksdale and George Barnes-guitar
Al McKibbon-bass, David 'Panama' Francis-drums
Hal Singer-tenor sax, Bill Graham-baritone sax
When I saw your smilin' face
Spreadin' joy all over the place
I said, 'Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo'
Please save me from going crazy
'Cause you’re givin' me spasms, baby!
I went to the doctor, the doctor said
Without your love I’d soon be dead
I said, 'Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo'
Please save me from goin' crazy
'Cause you’re givin' me spasms, baby!
Oh what a fit, I alway get
A-when you touch my shakin' hand
If ya tell me this ain’t love
I know right away you don’t understand
You kiss me once, um-hmm
I ask for more
You kiss me twice, woo!
I hit the floor
I said, 'Woo-ooo-ooo'
Please save me, from goin' crazy
Oh, you givin' me spasms, baby!
(Instrumental and guitar)
Oh what a fit, I always get
A-when ya touch my shakin' hand
If ya tell me this ain’t love
I know by the way ya don’t understand
You squeeze me tight, hmm
I got the feelin'!
You squeeze me tighter
And I hit the Ceilin!
I said, Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooh
Please save me, from goin' crazy
Ooh, you givin' me spasms, baby!
