Lyrics
- I know how Mister Romeo felt about Miss Juliet
I’m in love, and let me state
It knock’d me dizzy, but boy! it’s great
It’s somebody I hardly know
She’s a party I just met
Just the type that makes ’em stare
There she is right over there
Chorus
Well! well! well! Speaking of
Someone that I sure could love
Here’s that party now in person
Isn’t she nice and fresh?
Not a picture in the flesh
Here’s that party now in person
Those I’ve had have been wrong parties somehow
I’m so glad I’ve got the right party now
Well! well! well! If someday
I love, honor and obey
Here’s that party now in person
- I know now why Mark Antony fell for Cleo of the Nile
I’m sure he was not to blame
For this sweet party I’d do the same
Look at that personality
Get the figure and the smile
Look her over, gentlemen
While I tell the world again
