Gimme a Little Kiss Will Ya Huh
Dean Martin · Lay Some Happiness On Me: The Reprise Years (Repri [2002]
Gimme a little kiss, will ya huh
What are you gonna miss, will ya huh
Gosh oh gee, why do you refuse
I can't see what you've gotta lose.
Oh gimme a little squeeze, will ya huh
Why do you wanna make me blue
I wouldn't say a word if I were asking for the world
But what's a little kiss between a fellow and his girl?
Oh gimme a little kiss will ya huh
And I'll give it right back to you.
--- Instrumental ---
Will ya huh?

Will ya huh?
Once again a plea I'm gonne make
Oh tell me when do I get a break
Oh say when you're givin' in, will ya huh
Anything that you ask I'll do.
I'll take you for a little ride
Where we can be alone
And once you kiss me
You will never think of walkin' home.
Oh gimme a little kiss, will ya huh
Or I'll steal about ten.
Yes, steal about ten for you...
