"That Mesmerizing Mendelssohn Tune"

Honey, listen to that dreamy tune they're playin'
Won't you tell me how on earth you keep from swayin'?
Umm! Umm! Oh, that
Mendelssohn Spring Song tune

If you ever loved me show me now or never
Lord, I wish they'd play that music on forever
Umm! Umm! Oh, that Mendelssohn tune,

My honey

Love me to that ever lovin' Spring Song melody
Please me, honey, squeeze me to that Mendelssohn strain
Kiss me like you would your mother
One good kiss deserves another
That's the only music that was ever meant for me.

That tantalizin', hypnotizin',
mesmerizin' Mendelssohn tune

Bridge

Don't you stand there, honey,
can't you hear me sighin'?
Is you gwine to wait
until I'm almost dyin'?
Umm! Umm! Oh, that
Mendelssohn Spring Song tune
Get yourself acquainted with
some real live wooin'
Make some funny noises
like there's something doin'
Umm! Umm! Oh, that Mendelssohn tune,

My honey

Bridge

Love me to that ever lovin' Spring Song melody
Please me, honey, squeeze me to that Mendelssohn strain
Kiss me like you would your mother
One good kiss deserves another
That's the only music that was ever meant for me

That tantalizin', hypnotizin',
mesmerizin' Mendelssohn tune

That tantalizin', that hypnotizin',
mesmerizin' Mendelssohn tune
