Well I used think the color of love would be a rosy red or a pretty pink And I thought it would be a thirsty man crawlin´ home to get a big old drink And I thought love was spelled like a bell B-E-double L bell that you ring
Stead of wham bam hit your man with a pan Hit him on the head and listen to the birdies sing Oh you heart breakin´ love makin´ cut-me-a-piece-of-bacon man of mine Oh you money shiftin´ flour siftin´ nose liftin´ rose of woman kind Just keep on doin´ what you´re doin´ and what you´re doin´ suits me just fine And love I tell you something else you blow my mind Well I used to think the color of love would be a soft green like a pea in a pod And I thought love would strike like a light flashin´ down a big old lightning rod And I thought love was spelled W-E-double L well that would never run dry Instead of choke choke I´m so broke and dry I can´t afford a little bitty tear to cry
Ha oh you money turnin´ egg churnin´ butter burnin´ baby of mine You half crazy lean and lazy pretty as a wilted daisy man of mine Just keep on doin´ what you´re doin´ and what you´re doin´ suits me just fine And love I tell you something else you blow my mind You day and night alright love me till I´m old and goin´ blind And love you´re something else you blow my mind
