  • You and I, we fit together like a glove on a hand
    That's right, don't you know
    That I would gladly take you anywhere you wanted to go.
    You and me are as close as three part harmony, wouldn't you agree?
    And in the chance our romance ended it would surely be the end of me.

    Some people might say I'm infatuated, I don't care
    'Cause they really don't know
    They'll never see or hear the things I do with you.
    So far as I'm concerned they all can go to hell.
    Woh, woh, woh, woh baby cakes, now swing it sugar.
    Do, do, do, do,do, just swing it baby,

    You and I, will be together until the six is nine, that's right.
    When you need me I never hesitate,
    I always come, it's so much fun. Yeah!
    You and I, although we're poor our love has brought
    More wealth than Hughes, himself
    And if by chance there is an afterlife when we die
    You and I, I'll spend it with you

    Some people might say I'm infatuated, I don't care
    'Cause they really don't know
    They'll never see or hear the things I do with you.
    So far as I'm concerned they all can go to hell.
    Woh, woh, woh, woh, baby cakes, now swing it sugar.
    Do, do, do, do,do, just swing it baby, Can't take it baby

    You and I, you and me are going to be together eternally
    You and I, you and me are going to be together eternally
    You and I, you and me are going to be together eternally
    Yeah, yeah, yeah
    You and I, you and me
