It Tickles

Now when I was a growin' up I was a pip
I growed me a mustache on my lip
It wadn't very sticky mostly fuzz
I thought I'd give all the girls a buzz

I got real sweet on a Nellie Wills
I drove that country girl back in the hills
I asked her once if I could give her a peck
(If you can beat me to the old hay stack)

Well I beat her there and I hugged her tight
I turned loose all of my dynamite
I guess my kiss was a pretty lush
She smiled real big and begin to blush

(It tickles it tickles
I like it but it sure feels funny it's ticklin' me)

Oh I got me a name in the neighborhood
The girls all liked me I knew they would
I let it grow for a month or two
Just to see what I could do

There was a girl named Fanny Smith
Told me she didn't like to kiss
Well I caught her off guard and I didn't miss
(I didn't know it'd feel like this)

Well her eyes bugged out her face turned white
She helped me out with all of her might
I swear it took her breath away
She giggled and I heard her say

(It tickles it tickles
You sure are a lotta fun it's ticklin' me
[ guitar - fiddle ]
Well I guess I pertnear run 'em wild
They all went crazy over my style
Said I was the best around
The kissin'est man they'd ever found

The good ol' days are here again
I used to do it and I still can
Said a widder that I know
(I guess you'll never get too old)

Well I guess I've got that ol' knowhow
You ought to see me in action now
My kiss has still got that ol' zing
The widder said I ain't lost a thing

(It tickles it tickles
It feels that I'm just young again it's a ticklin' me)
