I been
thinkin' of thinkin' of lovin'
And I figure I'll figure, I guess
That I'll get where I get without shovin'
When I wonder 'bout the one they call Tess
Now it could be I could be her feller
'Cause I know that she knows that I might
And it's likely I'm likely to tell her
When I feel that the feelin' is right
It might be I might be mistaken
But I'll shoot for a shot at a chance
I don't mind that my mind is a-shakin'
I got time for the time for romance
I can tell I can tell her the feelin'
That I'm needin' to need to express
And maybe she may be revealin'
It could be she could be my Tess
BRIDGE
Now I bet that I had better, so I'm gonna go and get her
I can tell that she'll be tellin' me "yes"
I can't wait until I wed her (never mind I never met
her)[what about your Henrietta?]
I believe that I believe in my Tess
I been thinkin' of thinkin' of lovin'
And I figure I'll figure, I guess
That I'll get where I get without shovin'
When I wonder 'bout the one they call Tess
Yes, I'm thinkin' of thinkin' of lovin'
When I wonder 'bout the one they call Tess |
