GIVE THE GIRL A KISS^©

Live 29 Jul 1999 version

One, two, three, four

One, two, three, four

Alright here we go baby

Well now I ain't lookin' for excitement
Baby that's just a fact
If you want to get to her heart
You better let her know just where you're at

'Cause darlin' It ain't written in the sky above
No fortune-teller told me this
You gotta tell her that you need her
Tell her that you love her
And give the girl a great big kiss
Oh yeah, give the girl a great big kiss

Now if you're such a fool you think
It don't matter, baby, what you say
But maybe you better tell her how you're feelin'
It ain't gonna happen any other way

'Cause darlin' it ain't written in the sky above
No fortune-teller told me this
You gotta tell her that you need her
Tell her that you love her
And give the girl a great big kiss
Oh yeah, give the girl a great big kiss

Come on
Well baby all I wanna do
Is darlin' make sweet love to you
Come on Danny!

Come on Steve!

Oh, well you gotta love
Yeah baby that's right

Well I don't know what the meanin' is
Why you wanna hide the things you feel and say
But baby it's just a natural fact
Love was never meant to be that way

Now darlin' it ain't written in the sky above
No fortune-teller told me this
You gotta tell her that you need her
Tell her that you love her
And give the girl a great big kiss
Oh yeah, give the girl a great big kiss
Alright, give the girl a great big kiss
Oh yeah, give the girl a great big kiss

Well now baby all I wanna do
Is darlin' make sweet love to you
Come on Big Man!

[Clarence:] Give the girl a great big, great big, great big
[Clarence:] Give the girl a great big kiss
[Clarence:] Give the girl a great big, great big, great big
[Clarence:] Give the girl a great big kiss
Alright ladies and gentlemen
Give the girl a great big, great big, great big
[band:] Give the girl a great big kiss
[band:] Give the girl a great big, great big, great big...

Alright, this is the important part
This is the kissing part
If you're here with your baby
If you're here with your partner
If you're here with your friend, it's kissing time
If you're despicable and you're here by yourself, just kiss yourself for a minute
'Cause I feel love in the Meadowlands sports complex tonight
They play basketball and hockey here but we're gonna do some kissing right now
Are you ready?
Well we need a little more of the romantic mood
Ah, everybody right now?
Aaaaah, kiss! [lights are brought down low]
[kissing sounds] Ooh yeah. Oh oh, that's right. Yeah, go ahead. Ooh, come here. Birthday girl. Ooh ooh, a little bit higher, little bit higher. No no, a little bit lower, a little bit lower, a little lower, lower, lower, lower.
Woah! Happy birthday to me! [kissing sounds continue]
Elvis is alive! Don't ??? [lights brought back]
Yeah, yeah [Patti catches Bruce making out with his guitar]

One, two, three, four
All I wanna do
Is darlin' make sweet love to you
Come on!

Give the girl a great big, great big, great big
Give the girl a great big kiss
Give the girl a great big, great big, great big
Give the girl a great big kiss
Give the girl a great big, great big, great big
Give the girl a great big kiss
Give the girl a great big, great big, great big
Give the girl a great big kiss
Give the girl a great big kiss
[kissing sound]
