Well, I used to think the color of love
Would be a rosy red or a pretty pink
And I thought it would be
A thirsty man crawling home
To get a big old drink
And I thought love was spelled
Like a bell
B-E-double L, bell
That you ring
Stead of wham, bam
Hit your man with a pan
Hit him on the head
Listen to the birdies sing
Oh, you heartbreaking lovemaking
Cut me a piece of bacon man of mine
Oh, you money-shifting flour-sifting
Nose lifting rose of woman kind
Just keep on doing
What you're doing
What you're doing suits me just fine
And love I tell you something else
You blow my mind
Well, I used to think the color of love
Would be a soft green like a pea in a pod
And I thought love would strike
Like a light flashing down a big old lightning rod
And I thought love was spelled
W-E-double L, well
That would never run dry
And stead of choke, choke
I'm so broke and dry
I can't afford
A little bitty tear to cry
Oh, you money-turning egg churning
Butter burning baby of mine
You half crazy
Lean and lazy
Pretty as a wilted daisy man of mine
Just keep on doing
What you're doing
What you're doing suits me just fine
And love I tell you something else
You blow my mind
You day and night alright
Love me till I'm old and going blind
And love, you're something else
You blow my mind
