Goin' Co'tin' |
Goin' co’tin', goin' co’tin' |
Oh, it sets your senses in a whirl |
Goin' co’tin', goin' co’tin' |
Dudin' up to go and see your girl |
Oh, it’s fun to hunt and shoot a gun |
Or to catch a rabbit on the run |
But you’ll find it’s twice as sportin' |
Goin' co’tin' |
Now, there’s lots of things you’ve gotta know |
Be sure the parlor light is low |
You sidle up and squeeze her hand |
Let me tell you fellas that it’s grand |
You hem and haw — a little while |
She gives you kinda — half a smile |
You cuddle up — she moves away |
Then the strategy comes into play |
Goin' co’tin', goin' co’tin' |
If you find it hard to break the ice |
Goin' co’tin', goin' co’tin' |
Here’s a little feminine advice |
Roll your eyes and heave a little sigh (Frank sighs) |
Grunt and groan like you’re about to die (Caleb groans) |
That is what’s known as emotin' |
Goin' co’tin' |
Ah, how about sparkin'? |
Parlor’s darkin'? |
Yeah |
And you’re longin' for a fond embrace? |
Uh-huh |
What about pettin'? |
And sofa-settin'? |
Ah, suppose she ups and slaps your face? |
Just remember, blessed are the meek |
Don’t forget to turn the other cheek |
Pretty soon you’ll both be larkin' |
Goin' sparkin' |
Goin' dancin' |
GOIN' DANCIN' !? |
At a fancy ball or minuet |
Goin' dancin' |
You’ll impress her with your etiquette |
You mean — men are learnin' how to dance? |
Uh-huh, yes, it came direct from Paris, France |
It will help with your romancin' |
Goin' dancin' |
Keep your dancin'! |
And huntin'! |
And shootin'! |
And fightin'! |
And trappin'! |
'Cos we’re goin' co’tin' |
