If you just tell me you'll be true And say you love me too, Then we'll hit the moon 'cause nothing else could be Any hotter than that When the Fahrenheit hits me it is like a wave in flight I'm tellin' you man, it makes me boil to where I'm losin' my sight But Babe compared to you, a tropical Bayou that I might discover Is like the frozen night air from the Arctic Sea Love . . . . . . . . . . . . . is the fire, the flame that I'm speaking of You've cast that spell that voodoo that I want called love So if you'll say you'll be true And say you love me too Then we will hit the moon Breakin' the thermostat Just wait a minute while I spin a little tale It's story of . . . romance and mixed emotion Far removed from that which most encounter When they're lookin' for love. It's all about a burnin' yearnin' that I have known too well. This flame of fire it overtakes me each time I get movin' to a crazy Grindin' little rhythm when the music is up Syncopatin' wild music is the aphrodisiac that I adore Some folks think I'm a bit spicy but they really don't offend me at all
A bit carefree like Anais Nin am I in all the little matters That pertain to love Thanks for the listen don't be missin' all the sizzlin' out of love It's hotter than a hundred-and-ten in mid-July We're sayin' it's Hotter than Tabasco or Jamaican fry When you say you'll be true And tell me you love me too The yen for you won't hesitate So ... if you were to say to me babe That you find me, oh so fine dear When you say . . . you just can not live without me Than nothin' baby, could be hotter than that It's hotter than a hundred-and-ten in mid-July We're sayin' it's Hotter than Tabasco or Jamaican fry When you say you'll be true And tell me you love me too The yen for you won't hesitate (scat) So . . . if you were to say to me babe That you find me oh so fine dear When you say you just can not live without me then Laddy, look out Gabe So if you just say you'll be true And you cannot live without me Then nothing, baby, could be hotter than that
