Come here to me, my little chickadee
'Cause I think it's time you knew
That you're the kinda gal, I've had in mind
And I wanna play house with you

Bought the ring, took care of everything
And I'm ready to say, I do
You'll be the Mama and I'll be the Papa
'Cause I wanna play house with you

I never thought, I'd ever would get caught
By a gal who's five feet two
But it's a cinch, I love you every inch
And I wanna play house with you

When you kiss me, I'm like a kid of three
But my baby days are through
I'll build a bungalow that'll go to show
I wanna play house with you

The other gals want to marry me
But you just say, what for
I'm confessin' that you've got me guessin'
And it only makes me love you more

You never let me kiss you more than once
You're drivin' me wild, it's true
I know you're teasin' and that just the reason
Why I wanna play house with you

I never felt like playin' house before
But baby, now I do
I'll pay the bills if you'll provide the thrills
'Cause I wanna play house with you

Bought the ring, took care of everything
So give me kissin' too
You be the Mama and I'll be the Papa
'Cause I wanna play house with you
