Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's too darn hot
It's too darn hot
I'd like to sup with my baby tonight
Refill the cup with my baby tonight
I'd like to sup with my baby tonight
Fill the cup with my baby tonight
But I ain't up to my baby tonight
'Cause it's too darn hot
[Verse 2]
It's too darn hot
It's too darn hot
I'd like to coo with my baby tonight
And pitch the woo with my baby tonight
I'd like to coo with my baby tonight
Pitch the woo with my baby tonight
But brother, you fight my baby tonight
'Cause it's too darn hot
[Verse 3]
According to the Kinsey report, every average man you know
Much prefers his lovey-dovey to court
When the temperature is low
But when the thermometer goes way up
And the weather is sizzlin' hot
Mr. Pants-For-Romance is not
'Cause it's too, too, too darn hot
[Verse 4]
It's too darn hot
It's too, too darn hot
[Verse 5]
I'd like to coo with my baby tonight
And pitch the woo with my baby tonight
I'd like to coo with my baby tonight
Pitch the woo with my baby tonight
But brother, you fight my baby tonight
'Cause it's too darn hot
[Verse 6]
According to the Kinsey report, every average man you know
Much prefers his lovey-dovey to court
When the temperature is low
But when the thermometer goes way up
And the weather is sizzlin' hot
Mr. Gob-For-His-Squab
A marine for his queen
A G.I. for his cutie pie
Is not
[Verse 7]
'Cause it's too, too, too darn hot
It's too darn hot
It's too darn hot
It's too darn hot
It's too darn hot
It's too darn hot
