I'm riding high and I approve of the trend,
Lokk what I've found me,
I've got myself a gentleman friend.
The sun is kind, seems like it never will end
When he's around me,
I'm referring to my gentleman friend.

His kind of kissin' 
Suits me to a tee,
What I was missin'
In the used-to-be
I'm getting frequently!

And so goodbye to cares that hound me,
Is it any wonder that I wanna laugh and sing and cry?
Gonna love him till I die,
My gentleman friend.

His kind of kissin' 
Suits me to a tee,
What I was missin'

And so goodbye to cares that hound me,
Is it any wonder that I wanna laugh and sing and cry?
Gonna love him till I die,
My gentleman friend.

And so goodbye to cares that hound me,
Is it any wonder that I wanna laugh and sing and cry?
Gonna love him till I die,
My gentleman friend,
My gentleman friend,
My gentleman friend.
