the welcome has been
how lucky that you dropped in
so nice and warm
look out the window at that storm
my sister will be suspicious
gosh your lips look good
my brother will be there at the door
like waves upon a tropical storm
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious
gosh your lips are delicious
well maybe just a cigarrette more
never said your blues will be for
I've got to get home
but baby you'll freeze out there
say darling can you lend me your comb
it's up to your knees out there

I thrill when you touch my hand
but don't you see
how can you do this thing to me
