Ida Lee

They're throwin' a party for big Ida Lee

The man from the skyway, the Chinaman and me

There's so much affection it's making me crazy

I've run out of reasons for keepin' it neat

Everybody's laughin'

Everybody's makin' love

Ida Lee, it's you I'm thinkin' of

Threw out the favors, the hooters and the hats

We put out the candle, oh, and then blew out the cat

Oh, my temperature's rising, we're all on the chaise lounge

Big Ida Lee, she's nowhere to be found

Everybody's laughin'

Everybody's makin' love

Ida Lee, it's you I'm thinkin' of

Everybody's laughin'

Everybody's makin' love

Ida Lee, it's you I'm thinkin' of

They open the air shaft as Ida walks in

She comes up to me and whispers, "Honey, where have you been?"

I'm stripping my gears, I'm blowing my fuse

Cause Ida Lee's giving me somewhat more than I can use
