Summer breeze

Easin' back the curtains in my bedroom

Ceilin' fan

Stirrin' up the heat of the afternoon

I'm puttin' on my lipstick

My ruby red lipstick

Nice an' thick, baby

CHORUS

It ain't the gettin', it's the wishin'

It ain't the catchin', it's the fishin'

Anticipation got me waitin' for your

Sweet love, baby

Sweet love

Cotton sheets

Out there on the line, swingin' to and fro

Claw-foot tub

Drip, drip, drip, ah, honey

Nice and slow

I'm puttin' on my new dress

My pretty new blue, blue dress

Oh yes

SECOND CHORUS

It ain't the gettin', it's the wishin'

It ain't the catchin', it's the fishin'

Anticipation got me waitin' for your

Sweet love, darlin'

Sweet love

Let's get your whispers, honey

Tangled up with mine

Hurry on over and

Just take your sweet, sweet time

(Take your time, baby)

It ain't the catchin', it's the reachin'

It ain't the Heaven, it's the preachin'

Anticipation got me waitin'

It ain't the gettin', it's the wishin'

It ain't the catchin', baby, it's the fishin'

Anticipation got me waitin' for your sweet love, baby

Sweet love

Sweet love, darlin'

Summer breeze...
