KAY-MULETA
(Ray Gilbert / Eddie Gomez)


Doris Day - 1954



Kay-muleta-muleta, kay-muleta-muleta
Kay-muleta, he loves me I know
Kay-muleta-muleta, kay-muleta-muleta
Kay-muleta, he fell for me so

When the Moon was a-glowin', he was out Romeoin'
He climbed my balcony for an embrace
He was doin' splendid, suddenly it ended
He fell right on his face (Ooohh!)

Kay-muleta-muleta, kay-muleta-muleta
Kay-muleta, he should use the door
But his head now is mending, it's a happy ending
He loves me, my balcony is now on the first floor (Ooohh!)

Kay-muleta, kay-muleta
(Kay-muleta) Kay-muleta

One step at a time, he began to climb
So quietly, he didn't make a sound
His hand touched the railing, he slipped and went sailing
His legs up in the air, his head down in the ground (Ooohh!)

Kay-muleta, kay-muleta!

My Papa was kinda frantic, though the night was romantic
He was a little angry, I suppose
He picked him up neatly, suddenly and sweetly
He punched him in the nose (Ooohh!)

Kay-muleta-muleta, kay-muleta-muleta
Kay-muleta, he won't climb no more
But the nose now is mending, it's a happy ending
He loves me, my balcony is now on the first floor (Ooohh!)

Kay-muleta, kay-muleta
He loves me, my balcony is now on the first floor (Ooohh!)
