hows about cookin something up with me
hey, hey sweet baby, don't you think maybe
we could find us a brand new recipe
I got a hot rod ford, and a two dollar bill
and i know a spot right over the hill
There's cola pop, and the dancin is free
hey good lookin, watcha got cookin
hows about cookin something up with me
I'm free and I'm ready, maybe we can go steady
How's about saving all your time for me
No more lookin, I know i've been cookin
Hows about keep steady company
Well, I'm gonna throw my datebook over the fence
and find me one for five or ten cents
I'll keep it 'till it's covered with age
Cuz I'm writing your name down on every page.
Hey. hey good lookin', watcha got cookin
hows about cookin something up with me
hows about cookin something up with me
hows about cookin something up with me
