Dinah Washington My Loving Papa
This must be somethin' fine
'Cause nothin' else shakes this way
Yes, this must be somethin' fine
'Cause nothin' else shakes this way
I want to love you, Daddy
Till the night has turned to day
You say you been around
And you had a lot o' chicks
But tell me, Daddy
Have you ever got so many kicks
Yes, I may not be a doctor
But I got this thing for you
Please promise me, lovin' Papa
That you always will be true
Now, I know you're not a jockey
But I like the way you ride
I want you all the time
Right here by my side
Why don't you get it
Yes, just get your kicks
And when it gets you, Daddy
Gonna show you some new tricks
I'll have to see a mechanic
For it seems my motor won't stop
Yes, I'll have to see a mechanic
For it seems my motor won't stop
C'mon and knock me out, Papa
And we'll go around the block
