Your Heart’s a Jumble

Your heart’s a jumble, baby, now
You got me figgrin’ it out
I don’t know why I pray for Sunday
Hopin’ I’ll get some peace
‘Round this house

I was dreamin’ of Sevilla
You’re in your peignoir
I’m staying right here
Hey, yeah, yeah
Hey, yeah, yeah

I cain’t resist it baby-doll
I loves you down and across
With your hands on your hips
At the top of the stairs
You’re the boss

I finally see what my pappy
Was talkin’ about
Said, “I love your grandma, son
But I got 61 years worth of doubts”

This ain’t just one of those things
I’m always makin’ up
Life became just as easy as wakin’ up
As easy as wakin’ up, easy

My heart’s a number, baby, now
And you keep on callin’ it out
Always hated my name until I
Heard it comin’ out of your mouth

I finally see what my daddy
Was talkin’ about
Said, “I love your momma, son
But sometimes she just puts me out”

This ain’t just one of those things
I’m always makin’ up
Life became just as easy as wakin’ up
As easy as wakin’ up, easy

I finally see what my pappy
Was talkin’ about
Said, “I love your grandma, son
But sometimes she just makes me shout
Your heart’s a jumble, baby, now
And you got me figgrin’ it out
