Dilly dally, dilly dally, dilly dally

If you dilly dally, dilly dally, dilly dally

Then you're gonna be late

If you dilly dally, dilly dally, dilly dally

Then you're gonna be late

You heard me say love all the way

And I will prove love all the way

So don't dilly dally

Oh don't dilly dally

I tell you now don't dilly dally

Keep on telling don't dilly dally

If you wait a little, wait a little, wait a little

If you wait a little, wait a little, wait a little

Then you're sure to be late

If you dilly dally, dilly dally, dilly dally

If you dilly dally, dilly dally, dilly dally

Then you're gonna be late

You heard me say love all the way

And I will prove, prove love all the way

If you dilly dally, dilly dally, dilly dally

Then you're gonna be late

If you dilly dally, dilly dally, dilly dally

Then you're gonna be late

If you wait a little, wait a little, wait a little

Then you're gonna be late

If you wait a little, wait a little, wait a little

Then you're sure to be late

I tell you don't dilly dally

Don't dilly dally
