Risin' on the ball and here we go!
Oh tell me, will you, darlin'
Why you look so bad tonight!
There's bags around your eyeballs
Which is red instead of white!
Well it were thisaway!
You came when I was alone
Shucks, I shoulda knowed
That you was temptation!
I don't know what I was saying on the opening
But it was pretty frantic
Tim!
I swear, Jim, I said it, tim!
Tim, that you was tim-tayshun
Stand by
Going 'round in here
Risin' on the ball and here we go!
Oh tell me, will you, darlin'
Why you look so bad tonight!
There's bags around your eyeballs
Which is red instead of white!
Well it were thisaway!
You came when I was alone
Shucks, I shoulda knowed
That you was temptation!
You smiled, a-leerin' me on
My heart is plumb gone
'Cause you was temptation!
It'd be thrillin'
Ifen you're willin'
But ifen it never can be
Then pity for me!
For you was too bored to be kissed
I couldn't resist
'Cause you was temptation
And I was yours!
Yes, as the serpent tempted Adam
As the apple tempted Eve
As a mud hole tempts a mosquito, darlin'
That's how you tempted me!
Yeah, his corn-liquored lips are puckered
As sorghum tempts a bee
As a willow tree tempts a caterpillar, darlin'
That's how you tempted me!
You came when I was alone
Shucks, I shoulda knowed
That you was temptation!
You smiled, a-leerin' me on
My heart is plumb gone
'Cause you was temptation!
It'd be thrillin'
Ifen you're willin'
But ifen it never can be
Then pity for me!
'Cause you was too bored to be kissed
I couldn't resist
'Cause you was temptation
And I was yours!
Here's my heart!
Take it away!
Yes, take it away I said
And we will never never never part!
I'm just a slave
Just a bad burn slave
I'm a-goin' with you!
'Cause you're temptation
And I'm a red hot flame
Hot cinders!
For you!
