AlrightWell, the night keeps gettin' shorter
And the day keeps getting near
And your daddy wants to give up his daughter
But you think, you think you don't want himYou got me standing underneath your window
While you're deliberating on your fate
And you would really like to let me in though
But your fiance doesn't know your dateWell, if you thinkin' life could be much sweeter
Baby, doncha, doncha, doncha hesitate
Baby, doncha, doncha, doncha hesitateWell, we could leave tonight for Puerto Rico
Or we could catch a train to F-L-A
'Cause with your wedding day around the corner
I get to thinking that you shouldn't waitYou know that once the ring is on your finger
It's so much harder for a girl today
She won't be cozy with a rock 'n' roll singer
And throw her family and her husband awayWell, if you thinkin' life could be much sweeter
Baby, doncha, doncha, doncha hesitate
Baby, doncha, doncha, doncha hesitateI just can't waitWell, if you thinkin' life could be much sweeter
Baby, doncha, doncha, doncha hesitate
Baby, doncha, doncha, doncha hesitateBaby, doncha, doncha, doncha hesitate
Baby, doncha, doncha, doncha hesitate
Baby, doncha, doncha, doncha hesitate
Baby, doncha, doncha, doncha hesitate
Baby, doncha, doncha, doncha hesitate
