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' |
