MASHUGA
(Sid Danoff / Edward White - Maxwell Wolfson)
Keely Smith & Louis Prima - 1960
(Dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee)
(Dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee, Mashuga!)
I'm mashuga for my baby and my sugar's mashuga for me
Means I'm crazy for my baby and my baby's crazy for me
Things were mine till I met my honey
Now I'm wild over honey chile
Honey chile's got me feelin' funny
I'm fer schloggin' money in the noggin'
Oh, I'm mashuga for my sugar and my sugar's mashuga for me
Means I'm crazy for my baby and my baby's crazy for me
(Instrumental)
I'm mashuga for my sugar and my sugar's mashuga for me
Means I'm crazy for my baby and my baby's crazy for me
My heart jumps beaty-beaty-boom-boom
And I fly high up in the sky
My heart thumps beaty-beaty-boom-boom
I'm fer schloggin' money in the noggin'
Oh, I'm mashuga for my sugar and my sugar's mashuga for me
Means I'm crazy for my baby and my baby's crazy for me
And my baby's crazy for me
And my baby's crazy, crazy in love with me
(Dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee)
(Dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee, Mashuga!)
(Dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee)
(Dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee, Mashuga!)
