Lyrics You Hit the Spot - Sarah Vaughan, Roy Haynes, Joe Benjamin

You Hit the Spot

You hit the spot,
Like a balmy breeze on a night in May;
You hit the spot,
Like a cool mint julip on a summery day!
You hit a new high in my estimation,
I had to fall,
'Cause you’ve got so much on the ball!
Oh, you hit the spot,
Like the first embrace when the night is tied;
You hit the spot,
Like a pipe and slippers by a fireside!
Matter of factly,
Don’t know exactly,
What it is that you’ve got,
But ooh-ooh-ooh, you-ou-ou hit the spot!
You hit the spot,
Like a balmy breeze on a night in May;
You hit the spot,
Like a cool mint julip on a summery day!
You hit a new high in my estimation,
I had to fall,
'Cause you’ve got so much on the ball!
Oh, you hit the spot,
Like the first embrace when the night is tied;
You hit the spot,
Like a pipe and slippers by a fireside!
Matter of factly,
Don’t know exactly,
What it is that you’ve got,
But ooh-ooh-ooh, you-ou-ou hit the spot!
