One, Two, Button Your Shoe

Bing Crosby · Other Songs - Bing Crosby

One two button your shoe

Put on your coat and hat

I'll play a game like that

While I'm waiting for you

Three tour open the door

Hurry for heaven's sake



I count each step you take

While I'm waiting for you

Five six my eyes are fixed

On that picture of your charm

Seven eight you're at the gate



And you walk into my arms

None ten kiss me again

Tell me you get a thrill

Just as I hope you will

While I'm waiting for you
