Lyrics
- ‘Bout a real sweet mama let me “get you told”
She’s a combination of red hot n’ cold
Vampin’ is this baby’s middle name
Met her in Alaska ’bout a year ago
When it comes to lovin’, she’s the Eskimo
Now my brain’s a-whirl and she’s the one I blame
Chorus:
Hot Eskimo
And I want the whole wide world to know
She’s hot stuff
‘Cause she’s such a sweet lovin’ child
Gee, she’s got me actin’ like wild
I was safe and sound
Until she came around
And when she lamped me, how she vamped
Now I’m like a baby crawlin’ on the ground
Red hot lips
But she’s cool as any ice-berg tips
Some freezer
She’s the kind that gets you on the go, I know
She’s got the kind of lovin’ that’s red hot I’ll say
When she’s around the ice and snow just melt away
She’s some sweet Mama, Yama Yama
She’s my red hot Eskimo
- All you would-be vampires better fade away
Cause my sweet sweet baby is with me to stay
I don’t want no other Mama now
She’s got all this ever lovin’ daddy needs
Lots of style and lots of grace with pep and speed
I’m just wild about her, she’s a perfect wow
