A shepherd boy in a land you've never seen
Saw a girl busting out in bloom
He knew his sheep, but girls he'd never seen
Flipped his turban just smellin' her perfume

[Keely Smith]
Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy
She's a flame, but you're no match
Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy
You'll do the chasing and she will make the catch

[Louis Prima]
I love you, I love you

[Keely]
The shepherd sings his heart out

[Louis Prima]
I love you, I love you

[Keely]
The shepherd sings his heart out

[Louis]
He followed her through a mile of desert sand
She walked like honey poured when it's warm
His heart kept time just like an army band
Wish for a payment to put down on a farm
[Keely]
Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy
You've walked a mile for what you're gonna get
Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy
Stop making plans, you haven't got her yet

[Louis]
I love you, I love you

[Keely]
The shepherd sings his heart out

[Louis]
I love you, I love you

[Keely]
The shepherd sings his heart out

[Louis]
She dropped her veil and he recovered it
He gazed upon her beauty rare
He thought he was the first one to discover it
Noticed four rings on her fingers there

[Keely]
Oh, Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy
No need to run, your flock's asleep
Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy
You're singin' now, but you're singin' to your sheep
[Louis]
I love you, I love you

[Keely]
The shepherd sings his heart out

[Louis]
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you

[Keely]
The shepherd sings his heart out

[Louis]
Well that's alright, I'm through with you chicks anyway
And I'm going back and watching my sheep
[Meh]
