Jerome Kern
Howd You Like To Spoon With Me
Performed by Angela Lansbury)
Verse 1
[she]
I don't know why I am so very shy
I always was demure
I never knew what silly lovers do
No flirting I'd endure;
In all my life I've never kissed a man
I've never winked my eye
But now at last I'm going to break the ice
So how'd you like to try?
Refrain:
[she]
How'd you like to spoon with me?
[he]
I'd like to
[she]
How'd you like to spoon with me?
[he]
Well rather
[she]
Sit beneath an oak tree large and shady
Call me little tootsy wootsy baby
How'd you like to hug and squeeze?
[he]
Indeed I would
[she]
Dangle me upon your knees
[he]
Oh if I could
[both]
How'd you like to be my lovey dovey
How'd you like to spoon with me?
Verse 2
[he]
Well I should say I'd spoon with you all day
You fasinate me so
You are so cute, you really are a beaut
Through life with you I'd go
If we were wed our married life
Would be one steady honeymoon
From six A.M. 'til twelve o'clock at night
Why all we'd do is spoon
Repeat Refrain
