[Intro]
When the little bluebird
Who has never said a word
Starts to sing "Spring, spring" *bird chirping*
When the little bluebell
In the bottom of the dell
Starts to ring "Ding-ding" *bell dinging*
When the little blue clerk
In the middle of his work
Starts a tune to the moon up above
It is nature, that's all
Simply telling us to fall in love

[Verse 1]
And that's why chinks do it, japs do it
Why, up in Lapland little Lapps do it
Ah, let's do it
Let's fall in love

[Verse 2]
In Spain the best upper sets do it
Lithuanians and Letts do it
Ah, let's do it
Let's fall in love

[Bridge]
The Dutch in old Amsterdam do it
Not to mention the Finns
Folks in Siam do it
Think Siamese twins
[Verse 3]
Some Argentines without means do it
People say in Boston even beans do it
Ah, let's do it
Let's fall in love

[Verse 4]
Romantic sponges, they say, do it
Oysters down in Oyster Bay do it
Let's do it
Let's fall in love

[Verse 5]
Cold Cape Cod clams against their wish do it
And even lazy jellyfish do it
Come on, let's do it
Let's fall in love

[Bridge]
Electric eels I might add do it
Although it shocks 'em I know
Aw, why ask if shad do it
Waiter, bring me shad roe

[Verse 6]
In shallow shoals English soles do it
And goldfish in the privacy of bowls do it
Ah, let's do it
Let's fall in love
