| Goin' co’tin', goin' co’tin'
|
| Oh, it sets your senses in a whirl
|
| Goin' co’tin', goin' co’tin'
|
| Dudin' up to go and see your girl
|
| Oh, it’s fun to hunt and shoot a gun
|
| Or to catch a rabbit on the run
|
| But you’ll find it’s twice as sportin'
|
| Goin' co’tin'
|
| Now, there’s lots of things you’ve gotta know
|
| Be sure the parlor light is low
|
| You sidle up and squeeze her hand
|
| Let me tell you fellas that it’s grand
|
| You hem and haw — a little while
|
| She gives you kinda — half a smile
|
| You cuddle up — she moves away
|
| Then the strategy comes into play
|
| Goin' co’tin', goin' co’tin'
|
| If you find it hard to break the ice
|
| Goin' co’tin', goin' co’tin'
|
| Here’s a little feminine advice
|
| Roll your eyes and heave a little sigh (Frank sighs)
|
| Grunt and groan like you’re about to die (Caleb groans)
|
| That is what’s known as emotin'
|
| Goin' co’tin'
|
| Ah, how about sparkin'?
|
| Parlor’s darkin'?
|
| Yeah
|
| And you’re longin' for a fond embrace?
|
| Uh-huh
|
| What about pettin'?
|
| And sofa-settin'?
|
| Ah, suppose she ups and slaps your face?
|
| Just remember, blessed are the meek
|
| Don’t forget to turn the other cheek
|
| Pretty soon you’ll both be larkin'
|
| Goin' sparkin'
|
| Goin' dancin'
|
| GOIN' DANCIN' !?
|
| At a fancy ball or minuet
|
| Goin' dancin'
|
| You’ll impress her with your etiquette
|
| You mean — men are learnin' how to dance?
|
| Uh-huh, yes, it came direct from Paris, France
|
| It will help with your romancin'
|
| Goin' dancin'
|
| Keep your dancin'!
|
| And huntin'!
|
| And shootin'!
|
| And fightin'!
|
| And trappin'!
|
| 'Cos we’re goin' co’tin' |
