Hey, Good Lookin'
Jim Ed Brown and the Browns · Going Up the Country [RCA] [1970]
Hey, good lookin'
Whatcha got cookin'
How's about cookin'
Something up with me.
Hey, sweet baby
Don't you think maybe
We could find us
A brand new recepie.
I got a hot rod Ford
And a two dollar bill
And I know a spot
Right over the hill.
There's soda pop
And the dancin's free
If you wanna have fun
Come along with me.
Singin' hey good lookin'
Whatcha got cookin'
How's about cookin'
Something up with me.
--- Instrumental ---
I'm free and ready
So we can go steady
How's about saving
All your time for me.
No more lookin'
I know I've been tooken
How's about keeping
Steady company.
I'm gonna throw
My datebook over the fence
And find me one
For five or ten cents.
I'll keep it till
It's covered with age
'Cause I'm writin' your name
Down on every page.
Singin' hey, good lookin'
Whatcha got cookin'
How's about cookin'
Something up with me.
How's about cookin'
Something up with me...
Hey, Good Lookin'
