Freddie's Yen For Jen

Vs.
1
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
Vs.

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
Vs.

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
