Too Darn Hot Lyrics
Stacey Kent
Lyrics
It's too darn hot, it's too darn hot
I'd like to sup with my baby tonight
And fill the cup with my baby tonight
I'd like to sup with my baby tonight
Fill the cup with my baby tonight
But I'm not up to my baby tonight
'Cause it's too darn hot
It's too darn hot, it's too darn hot
I'd like to coo with my baby tonight
And pitch some woo with my baby tonight
I'd like to coo with my baby tonight
Pitch some woo with my baby tonight
But I won't fight with my baby tonight
'Cause it's too darn hot
According to the Kinsey report
Every average man you know
Likes his lovey dovey to court
When the temperature is low
But when the thermometer goes right up
And the weather is sizzling hot
Mr. Man with a plan is not
'Cause it's too darn hot
It's too darn hot, it's too darn hot
It's too darn hot, it's too darn hot
I'd like to meet with my baby tonight
Get off my feet with my baby tonight
I'd like to meet with my baby tonight
Get off my feet with my baby tonight
But no repeat with my baby tonight
'Cause it's too darn hot
According to the Kinsey report
Every average man you know
Much prefers to play his favorite sport
When the temperature is low
But when the thermometer goes way up
And the weather is sizzling hot
Mister Adam for his madam is not
'Cause it's too darn hot
It's too darn hot, it's too darn hot
