Let's Begin
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Before I met you no one attracted me
No love thoughts worried or distracted me
My disposition kept exempting me
Until you started in preempting me
And all this while, you've really been tempting me
Maybe you can tell me what we ought to do
Now that you've got me going, what you gonna do?
Is it up to me? Is it up to you?
What kind of game is this we've begun?
Was it done, just for fun?
We have necked, till I'm wrecked
Won't you tell me what you expect?
Is this to be a case of kiss and never tell?
Folly and farewell
Heaven or maybe hell
Which is it going to be, love or gin?
Wife or sin? Let's begin
(bridge)
We have necked, till I'm wrecked
Won't you tell me what you expect?
Is this to be a case of kiss and never tell?
Folly and farewell
Heaven or maybe hell
Which is it going to be, love or gin?
Wife or sin? Let's begin
