As recorded by ANNETTE HANSHAW:



I remember the bliss of that wonderful kiss

I knew that a boy could never have more joy from any little miss

I remember it quite, 'twas a wonderful night

Oh, how I'd adore it if you would encore it 


Oh, do, do, do, what you’ve done done done before, baby

Do do do what I do do do adore, baby

Let’s try again, sigh again, fly again to heaven

Baby, see it’s ABC, I love you and you love me


I know know know what a beau beau beau should do, baby

So don’t don’t don’t say it won’t won’t won’t come true, baby

My heart begins to hum, dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-dum

So, do, do, do, what you’ve done done done before


(Piano Solo)


Oh, do, do, do, what ya done done done before, baby

Do, do, do, what I do do do adore, baby

Let’s try again, sigh again, fly again to heaven

Baby, see it’s ABC, I love you, do you love me


I know know know what a beau beau beau should do, baby

So don’t don’t don’t say it won’t won’t won’t come true, baby

My heart begins to hum, doh-doh-dohdle-ohdle-dum-dum-dum

So, do, do, do, what you’ve done done done before

Dee-oodle-doo, dee-oodle-doo, doo-doo-doo

That's all!
