Lyrics
- Little Freddie Ray is a very bashful chap
Still I’m here to say Freddie isn’t any sap
He’s in love with a cutey, she is really a beauty
He gets tongue-tied when she’s by his side
Chorus
He whispers I love, lu-lu-lu-lu-lu-love you dear
Indeed I do
I hope that you love, lu-lu-lu-lu-lu-love me dear
Like I love you
I wish that I could stop my heart from fluttering
That’s the reason I am stuttering
Just the same what I claim is true
I think that your kiss, ki-kiss, ki-kiss
Your kiss is simply just divine
It brings me such bliss, bl-bliss, bl-bliss
Such bliss to press your lips to mine
It’s always like this, like this, th-this, like this
Each word I’m uttering I’m always stuttering
When I’m with you
- When he says goodnight Freddie always has a rule
He turns down the light hanging in the vestibule
Tho’ he starts to leave early
He stands there with his girlie
Till her mother comes down after her
