HEAD OVER HEELS (IN LOVE)
Harry Revel (m) Mack Gordon (l) 1936
as rec by Jack Cooper w Ambrose and His Orch (1936)
I sing when I'm talking
I dance when I'm walking
And oh, how lovely it feels
Just to be
To be
To be
Head over heels in love
Can't sleep a wink,
and I
Can't even think,
and I
Miss about half of my meals
'Cause I fell
I fell
I fell
Head over heels in love
Every night I'm the mooniest one
The Juniest one
The looniest one
Love made me the crooniest one
Spring has sprung
Oh tra-la-la
My heart is a-flutter
I stammer and stutter
I s-s-suppose it reveals
That I am
I am
I am
High in the heavens above
Head over heels in love

Oh, what has happened to me?
I'm the happiest one,
I'm a son of a gun,
And I'm riding on high!
Oh, what has happened to me?
I'm the silliest goose,
I'm a happy papoose,
And I'll tell you just why,
Yes I'll tell you just why,
I-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi!
Singing' and talking,
I dance when I'm walking,
And oh how lovely it feels!,
Just to be
To be, to be
Head over heels in love!
Can't sleep a wink, and I
Can't even think, and I
Miss about half of my meals,
'Cause I fell
I fell, I fell
Head over heels in love!
Every night I'm the mooniest one,
The Juniest one,
The looniest one!
Love made me the crooniest one,
Spring has sprung, oh tra-la-la!
My heart is a-flutter,
I stammer and stutter,
I s-s-suppose that reveals
That I am,
I am, I am
High in the heavens above,
Head over heels in love!
Every night I'm the mooniest one,
The Juniest one,
The looniest one!
Love made me the crooniest one,
Spring has sprung, oh tra-la-la!
My heart is a-flutter,
I stammer and stutter,
I s-s-suppose that reveals
That I am,
I am, I am
High in the heavens above,
Head over heels in love!
