Oh, my heart skips a beat
When you walk down the street
I feel the trembling in my knee
And just to know your mine
Until the end of time
Makes my heart skips a beat
Well, I did a double take
The day I met you
My heart skips a beat
When you'd stood next to me
Well I knew right then
I never would forget you
For you are my every
Dream come true
Oh, my heart skips a beat
When you walk down the street
I feel the trembling in my knee
And just to know your mine
Until the end of time
Makes my heart skips a beat
I got a tiger by the tail
It's plain to see
It won't be much
When you get through with me
I am losing weight and
Turning mighty pale
Looks like I've got
A tiger by the tail
I thought the day I met you
You were weak as a lamb
Just the kind to fit
My dreams and plans
Now the place we're living
Takes the wind from my sail
Looks like I've got
A tiger by the tail
I got a tiger by the tail
It's plain to see
It won't be much
When you get through with me
I am losing weight and
Turning mighty pale
Looks like I've got
A tiger by the tail
-Instrumentals-
I know that you been fooling
Around me right from the start
But I'll take back my ring
And I'll take back my heart
And when you tired of
Fooling around with two or three
Then come on home and
Fool around with me
I wasn't fooling around
The day I said "I do"
But many a night I wish
That I been fooling too
I know it's foolish
Taken all this misery
But when it's you
A fool I'll always be
I know that you been fooling
Around me right from the start
But I'll take back my ring
And I'll take back my heart
And when you tired of
Fooling around with two or three
Then come on home and
Fool around with me
-Instrumentals-
I know that you been fooling
Around me right from the start
But I'll take back my ring
And I'll take back my heart
And when you tired of
Fooling around with two or three
Well then come on home and
Fool around with me
And when you tired of
Fooling around with two or three
Well then come on home and
Now the place we're living
Takes the wind from my sail
Looks like I've got
A tiger by the tail
I got a tiger by the tail

Around me right from the start
But I'll take back my ring
And I'll take back my heart
And when you tired of
Fooling around with two or three
Then come on home and
Fool around with me
I wasn't fooling round
The day I said "I do"
But many a night I wish
That I been fooling too
I know it's foolish
Taken all this misery
But when it's you
A fool I'll always be
I know that you been fooling
Around me right from the start
But I'll take back my ring
And I'll take back my heart
And when you tired of
