Dozens of girls would storm up
I had to lock my door
Somehow I couldn't warm up
To one before

What was it that controlled me?
What kept my love life lean?
My intuition told me
You'd come on the scene

Lady, listen to the rhythm of my heartbeat
And you'll get just what I mean
Embrace me, my sweet embraceable you!
Embrace me, you irreplaceable you!

Just one look at you, my heart grew tipsy in me
You and you alone bring out the gypsy in me!
I love all the many charms about you!
Above all I want these arms about you
Don't be a naughty baby
Come to daddy, come to daddy, do!
My sweet embraceable you!

Just one look at you, my heart grew tipsy in me
You and you alone bring out the gypsy in me!
I love all the many charms about you!
Above all I want these arms about you
Now don't be a naughty baby,

Come to daddy, come to daddy, do!
My sweet embraceable you!
