Lyrics You'd Be Surprised - Stephen DeRosa, Vince Giordano, The Nighthawks

You'd Be Surprised

Johnny was bashful and shy
Nobody understood why
Mary loved him
All the other girls passed him by
Everyone wanted to know
How she could pick such a bow
With a twinkle in her eye
She made this reply
He’s not so good in a crowd
But when you get him alone
You’d be surprised
He isn’t much at a dance
But when he’s taking you home
You’d be surprised
He doesn’t look like much of a lover
But you can’t judge a book by its cover
He’s got the face of an angel but
There’s a devil in his eye
He’s such a delicate thing
But when he’s starting to squeeze
You’d be surprised
He doesn’t look very strong
But when you sit on his knees
You’d be surprised
At a party or at a ball
I’ve got to admit that he’s nothing at all
