In The Mood lyrics
by Glenn Miller
Who's the lovin' daddy with the beautiful eyes?
What a pair o' lips, I'd like to try 'em for size
I'll just tell him, "Baby, won't you swing it with me?"
Hope he tells me maybe, what a wing it will be
So, I said politely, "Darlin' may I intrude?"
He said, "Don't keep me waitin' when I'm in the mood"
First, I held him lightly and we started to dance
Then, I held him tightly what a dreamy romance
And I said "Hey, baby, it's a quarter to three.
There's a mess of moonlight, won'tcha share it with me?"
"Well," he answered, "Baby, don'tcha know that it's rude
To keep my two lips waitin' when they're in the mood?"
In the mood, that's what he told me
In the mood, and when he told me
In the mood, my heart was skippin'
It didn't take me long to say "I'm in the mood now"
In the mood for all his kissin'
In the mood, his crazy lovin'
In the mood, what I was missin'
It didn't take me long to say "I'm in the mood now"
(Instrumental Interlude)
So, I said politely, "Darlin' may I intrude?"
He said, "Don't keep me waitin' when I'm in the mood"
(Instrumental Interlude)
"Well," he answered, "Baby, don'tcha know that it's rude
To keep my two lips waitin' when they're in the mood?"
Who's the lovin' daddy with the beautiful eyes?
What a pair o' lips, I'd like to try 'em for size
I'll just tell him, "Baby, won't you swing it with me?"
Hope he tells me maybe, what a wing it will be
So, I said politely, "Darlin', may I intrude?"
He said, "Don't keep me waitin' when I'm in the mood."
First, I held him lightly and we started to dance
Then, I held him tightly what a dreamy romance
And I said "Hey, baby, it's a quarter to three.
It's a mess of moonlight, won'tcha share it with me?"
"Well," he answered, "Baby, don'tcha know that it's rude
To keep my two lips waitin' when they're in the mood?"
