Lyrics

I never knew love was so nice
I never kissed anyone twice
I never wanted a beau
Poor me! I just didn’t know
You came along, I got a thrill
One kiss from you, I feel it still
Now each time you look my way
You’re gonna hear me say

Refrain
Come on and do what you do
It seems so new, what you do
It thrills me through, what you do
So, do what you do some more
You know I love what you do
Keep dreaming of what you do
Don’t be above what you do
But do what you do some more
Can’t get enough of the kisses you throw me
I need a big supply
Give me the kisses you own me
Oh, me! oh, my!
Do I adore what you do?
More and more, and more
And more what you do
I’m crazy for what you do
So, do what you do some more
