Smokey Robinson & The Miracles - If I Were A Bell lyrics

rate me

Ding-dong, ding-dong,

Ding-dong, ding-dong,

Ding!

Ask me how do I feel,

Now that we're cozy and cling-ging.

Well sir, all I can say,

Is if I were a bell, I'd be...

(Ring,) ((ring,)) ((ring,)) ((ring,))

Ringing!

From the moment we kissed goodnight,

That's the way I jus' got ta behave.

And if I were a lamp I'd light,

And if I were a banner I'd wave.

Ask me how do I feel,

Li'l-ole me with my quiet upbring-ging.

Well sir, all I can say,

Is if I were a gate, I'd be...

(Swing,) ((swing,)) ((swing,)) ((swing,))

Swinging!

And if I were a clock,

I'd surely be popping my spri-ings.

And if I were a bell,

I'd go ding-dong, ding-dong, ding.

A-dong-ding.

A-dong-ding, a-dong-ding, a-dong-

-Ding.

(Bahh,) ((bahhh,))

Bahhh!

Oh yes, I knew my morale would crack,

From the wonderful way that you looked.

And if I were a duck I'd

/ (Quack)

Quack.

And if I were a goose,

I'd be cooked.

Ask me how do I feel,

Now that we're final-ly caressing.

Boy, if I were a salad, don'tcha know,

I'd be splashing my-iii dressing.

Or if I were a season, boy,

I'd surely be spring.

(And if I were a bell,)

(If I keep them...)

((I were a bell...))

If

I I were a bell...

And if I were a bell, if

I were a bell, I'd go

Ding-dong, ding-dong,

A-ding-dong. A-ding-dong.

A-ding-dong. A-ding-dong.

A-ding-dong. A-ding-dong.

Ding-a-ling-ling-ling-ling-ling-ling-ling...
