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, babyIt 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 loveCotton sheets, out there on the line swingin' to and fro
Clawford tub, drip, drip, drip, ah, honey, nice an' slow
I'm puttin' on my new dress
My pretty new blue, blue dress, oh yesIt 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 loveLet's get your whispers, honey
Tangled up with mine
Hurry on over an' just
Take your sweet, sweet time
Take your time, babyIt 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, sweet love, sweet love, sweet love, darlin'Summer breeze, straight through my cotton sheets
Sweet, oh, you can leave your hat on, baby
Sweet love, sweet, sweet love
