He s kind of tall.........
He s really fine
Some day I hope to make him mine, all mine
And he s neat..
And oh, so sweet..
and just the way he looked at me
he swept me off my feet..........(yeah-yeah!)

He s really down..
and he s no clown.
He has the finest penthouse I ve ever seen in town.
And he s cute..
in his Mohair suit.
And he keeps his pockets full of spending loot.

And his brand new car.

Every time he says he loves me..
chills run down my spine.
Every time he wants to kiss me..
he makes me feel so fine..(yeah)

Ooo wah, ooo wah cool, cool kitty

Well he can dance..
and make romance.
That s when I fell in love
with just one glance.
He was shy..
and so was I.
And now I know I ll never, ever say goodbye.
BRIDGE:
Ooo-ooo-ooo-whee..you ought to come and see..
he s the most..
from coast to coast.
