Lyrics:
(scat intro)

My love to you I bring
On account of you can sing
Bli-Blip, Bobby, Flam, Flam, Flam, Hit the yaddle oddle bayou

My love for you is true
On account of you can do
Bli-Blip, Bobby, Flam, Flam, Flam, Hit the yaddle oddle bayou

My poor heart, gives a start
Like a jitterbug, just won't stop
Mix your crooning, with my spooning
And let me blow my top, mop!

Your love to me I've sworn
On account of mine is y'orn
Bli-Blip, Bobby, Flam, Flam, Flam, Hit the yaddle oddle bayou

(scat interlude)

My poor heart, gives a start
Like a jitterbug, just won't stop
So mix your crooning, with my spooning
And let me blow my top, mop!

Your love to me I've sworn
On account of mine is y'orn
Bli-Blip, Bobby, Flam, Flam, Flam, Hit the yaddle oddle bayou
