|
I'll reply |
|
In the cool, cool, cool of the evenin' tell 'em |
|

|
In the cool, cool, cool of the evenin' better save a chair |
|
When the party's gettin' a glow on singin' fills the air |
|
In the shank of the night when the doin's are right |
|
Well, you can tell 'em |
|
I'll be there"Oui", said the bumblebee, "Let's have a jubilee""When?", said the prairie hen, "Soon", "Sure", said the dinosaur"Where?", said the grisly bear, "Under the light of the moon""How 'bout your brother, jackass?" |

In the cool of the evenin' tell 'em |
|

|
In the cool of the evenin' better save a chair |

When the party's gettin' a glow on singin' fills the air |

If I ain't in the clink and there's something to drink |
|
Well, you can tell 'em |
|
I'll be there |
|
If I can crawl out of bed and slap a hat on my head |
|
Well, you can tell 'em |
|
I'll be there |
|
If there's room for one more and you need me, why sure |
|
Tell 'em, tell 'em |
|
I'll be there |
