Description[edit | edit source]
- "A night in the Copacabana can bring all kinds if excitement; wise guys on each side of the room making sure the big bosses are happy. Cigarettes sparking flames and smoking hot dames with jewels the size of Everest on their fingers. Those kept ladies can't stop what our narrator already knows. In a devoted plea to the handsome crooner on stage, nothing's gonna stop our girl now."
Lyrics[edit | edit source]
I'm in a little bit of trouble And I'm in real deep From the beginning to the end He was no more than a friend to me
The thought is makin' me hazy I think I better sit down Cause like the sweetest serenade Bet he knows he's got it made with me
Twisting round on a carousel This speed's too much to stop One second I'm thinkin' I'm feelin' the lust And then I feel a lot
Ooh that man is like a flame And ooh that ma plays me like a game My only sin is I can't win Ooh I wanna love that man Ooh that man is on my list And ooh that man I wanna kiss My only sin is I can't win Ooh I wanna love that man
Now it's like I'm on a mission Headed everywhere And if it takes a little long And it feels a little wrong who cares?
My baby fits the description And does it easily A little Gable, some Astaire When he dances I can hardly breathe
Someone call a doctor Need some help to rescue me One second I'm thinkin' I must be lost And he keeps on findin' me
Ooh that man is like a flame And ooh that ma plays me like a game My only sin is I can't win Ooh I wanna love that man Ooh that man is on my list And ooh that man I wanna kiss My only sin is I can't win Ooh I wanna love that man
Ohh, I'm gonna find that man You bet ya, I'm gonna find that man Ooh, I'm gonna find that man I'm gonna find that, I'm gonna find that man
