GIVE HER A KISS
Richard Rodgers (m) Lorenz Hart (l) 1932
as rec by Sam Coslow w Nat W Finston & The Paramount Orch
Sep 28th 1932 New York
Don't you feel a thrill at something,
Something in the air?
Your eyes entice,
I mean they're nice!
I admire your dress, your perfume,
And the way you do your hair.
My friends all say,
"Be brave today!";
Give her a kiss, face the issue,
Give her a kiss, make her kiss you;
She'll adore it,
Thank you for it!
Give her a kiss, why have you lips?
Give her a kiss, purse those two lips!
She's so lovely,
Give her a kiss!
Take the lady by storm,
You know you can;
She'll reply with a warm,
"Man, you're my man!".
How can you miss?
You can make it!
Give her a kiss,
She can take it!
Now or never,
Give her a kiss!
Ooh ooh ooh ooh!
You know you can;
Ooh ooh ooh ooh!
You're my man!
Ooh ooh!
Ooh ooh ooh!
Now or never,
Give her a kiss!
