As recorded by DUSTY SPRINGFIELD

In the cool of the evening when ev'rything is gettin' kind of groovy
You call me up up and ask me would I like to go with you and see a movie
First I say, "No, I've got some plans for the night"
And then I stop, and say, "All right"
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little boy like you

You always keep me guessin', I never seem to know what you are thinkin'
And if a girl looks at you, it's for sure your little eye will be a-winkin'.
I get confused, I never know where I stand
And then you smile and hold my hand
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little boy like you
Spooky!

(Instrumental Break)

If you decide someday to stop this little game that you are playin'
I'm gonna tell you all the things my heart's been a-dyin' to be sayin'
Just like a ghost, you've been a-hauntin' my dreams
But now I know you're not what you seem
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little boy like you
Spooky, yeah!

Oo-ooh-ooh, Spooky!
Spooky! ...... FADE
