Summer breeze easin' back the curtains in my bedroom.
|
Ceilin' fan stirrin' up the heat of the afternoon.
|
I'm puttin' on my lipstick, my ruby red lipstick...
|
Nice an' thick, baby.
|
|
It ain't the gettin', it's the wishin';
|
It ain't the catchin', it's the fishin'.
|
Anticipation got me waitin' for your sweet love, baby.
|
Sweet love.
|
|
Cotton sheets out there on the line, swingin' to and fro.
|
Clawford tub drip, drip, drip, ah, honey, nice an' slow.
|
I'm puttin' on my new dress,
|
My pretty new blue, blue dress, oh yes!
|
|
It ain't the gettin', it's the wishin';
|
It ain't the catchin', it's the fishin'.
|
Anticipation got me waitin' for your sweet love, darlin'.
|
Sweet love.
|
|
Let's get your whispers, honey, tangled up with mine.
|
Hurry on over an' just take your sweet, sweet time.
|
Oooh.
|
|
[Instrumental break]
|
|
(Take your time, baby.)
|
|
It ain't the catchin', it's the reachin';
|
It ain't the Heaven, it's the preachin'.
|
Anticipation got me waitin'.
|
|
It ain't the gettin', it's the wishin';
|
It ain't the catchin', baby, it's the fishin'.
|
Anticipation got me waitin' for your sweet love, baby. (Sweet, sweet love.)
|
Sweet love.
|
|
Sweet love, darlin'.
|
Mmm, mmm, mm.
|
|
Summer breeze, straight through my cotton sheets.
|
Mmm, mmm, mmm, sweet.
|
Oh, you can leave your hat on baby.
|
Sweet, love. (Sweet, sweet love.)
