I'm a slow boy, I take it easy I poke around, I'm a little lazy I don't get loud, I don't get shook Sit over in the corner and write in my notebook But I get a little excited, I get a little excited I get a little excited when my darling comes around Her shoes are broke, she wears an old dress I don't know what it is I confess Bags under her eyes, a weary soul When the woman starts laughing I lose control And I get a little excited, I get a little excited I get a little excited when my darling comes around Only thing I wanna see today Is her face six inches away When she ain't around, there's a lot amiss When she plants one on me, buddy, that's a kiss I get a little excited, I get a little excited I get a little excited when my darling comes around I go ah mm ah ha ah, she goes oh mm ah ha ah Well life is work day to day Not one thing is here to stay I like to hide out when I can I'm a Midwest boy, I'm a big dumb man But I get a little excited, I get a little excited I get a little excited when my darling comes around I like her mind, I like her mouth She's like a sunflower shinin' down South I like her voice, I like her cookin' I stare at her if she is or if she ain't lookin' And I get a little excited, I get a little excited I get a little excited when my darling comes around I get a little excited, oh I get a little excited I get a little excited when my darling comes around
