In the Mood
Benny Goodman

Who's the loving daddy with the beautiful eyes
What a pair o' shoes, I'd like to try 'em for size
I'll just tell him, Baby, won't you swing it with me
Hope he tells me maybe, what a wing it will be
So, I said politely Darling may I intrude
He said Don't keep me waiting when I'm in the mood

First I held him lightly and we started to dance
Then I held him tightly what a dreamy romance
And I said Hey, baby, it's a quarter to three
There's a mess of moonlight, won't you share it with me
Well he answered Baby, don't you know that it's rude
To keep my two lips waiting when they're in the mood

In the mood, that's what he told me
In the mood, and when he told me
In the mood, my heart was skipping
It didn't take me long to say I'm in the mood now

In the mood for all his kissing
In the mood his crazy loving
In the mood what I was missing
It didn't take me long to say I'm in the mood now

So, I said politely Darling may I intrude
He said Don't keep me waiting when I'm in the mood

Well he answered Baby, don't you know that it's rude
To keep my two lips waiting when they're in the mood

Who's the loving daddy with the beautiful eyes
What a pair o' shoes, I'd like to try 'em for size
I'll just tell him, Baby, won't you swing it with me
Hope he tells me maybe, what a wing it will be
So, I said politely Darling may I intrude
He said Don't keep me waiting when I'm in the mood

First I held him lightly and we started to dance
Then I held him tightly what a dreamy romance
And I said Hey, baby, it's a quarter to three
It's a mess of moonlight, won't you share it with me
Well he answered Baby, don't you know that it's rude
To keep my two lips waiting when they're in the mood
