Like a duck takes to water,
like the flowers take to do.
Like a latin takes to a latin quarter,
I take to you.
Like a fish takes to swimming,
like the Irish take to stew.
Like a sultan takes to a flock of women,
I take to you.
Like moon and June, kiss and bliss,
a park, a bench, and a tree
They all go together,
and honey, so do we
Like a star takes to gleaming,
like a moonbeam to
the blue
Like a lover takes to a night of dreaming,
I take to you, baby,
I take to you
Like a kid takes two fables,
and like a boogeyman two boos.
Like a sick -filled baby takes two sables,
I take two yous.
Like a dove takes two cooing,
and like a sneeze takes two kachoos.
Like a good girl takes two nothing doing,
I take two yous.
Like ham and eggs, and pork and beans,
and cream and sug ar and tea.
They all go together,
and honey, so do we
Cause like a sweep takes to kipper
Like a button to a shoe
Like your grandpappy takes
to his piping slippers
I take to you
Are you listening?
I take to you
How's about another chorus or two?
Cause like the spring takes to mayday
Like a hawkshaw to a clue
Like your mother takes
to your dad on payday,
I -a, I take -a to you -a.
Like a redhead takes to... Henna! Yeah!
And like a monkey takes to a... Zoo!
Like a strouse wolf takes to old Vienna,
I take to you.
Like sweet and low...
And yes and no...
And golly gosh and oh gee...
They all go together,
and honey, so do we.
Like a sharpie, takes to tradin'
And like a fence to parlin' boo
Like a sailor, takes to a hula -mainin'
I take to you
Yes, in deedy
Ta -da
Indeed I do
You're a sweetie
Ta -da
We've taken by you
I repeat it
Like a hoot, I'll take to you
I take to you you
