Lyrics
Chorus
Could I care for that baby there
With the dimples and fluffy hair?
Could I? I certainly could
Could I show her a dandy time
In that little old bus of mine?
Could I? I certainly could
What lovin’ wouldn’t I get? wouldn’t I get?
Hot oven, couldn’t she pet! couldn’t she pet!
Could I kiss her and make her sigh?
“Chesterfield! how you satisfy”
Could I? I certainly could
Chorus
Could I care for those lovin’ charms?
Could I cuddle her in my arms?
Could I? I certainly could
Could I take her out in the park
Teach her how to kiss in the dark?
Could I? I certainly could
What lovin’ wouldn’t I get? wouldn’t I get?
Hot oven, couldn’t she pet! couldn’t she pet!
Could I give her a thrill or two?
I’m not asking, I’m telling you
Could I? I certainly could
