Answer that phone!
I can't do everything around
here!
I went out with my gal the other night
But I should have stayed in bed
When we started to pet,
she started to fret
Now listen to what she said
Young man, I've got my reputation
So understand the situation
Then she held out with deliberation
And would not yield to my temptation
Now all I wanted was cooperation
Just one little kiss for consolation
But then she changed the conversation
And would not yield to my temptation
Tempta tion
Just one little kiss
Temptation
She'd never, never miss
She would not yield to temptation
Shooby -dooby -doo
Well, we climbed into my transportation
Drove down to a dark location
But I couldn't break down
her deformation
She would not yield to my temptation
I said, you are a sensation
She told me to take a vacation
You must be having a hallucination
To think that I'd yield to
your temptation
Tempta tion
She wasn't very nice
Temptation
And I even had the price
Would not yield to temptation
Shoo -be -doo -be -doo
Then she said she'd solve my situation
So I listened to her explanation.
Then she handed me a proclamation
on how she would yield to my temptation
She said I'll give you adoration
We got married for confirmation,
but then I would lose my emancipation.
So I said to heck with a whole
operation
Temptations, temptations,
would not yield to temptations
Well, I drove her home in wild frustration
Her family and I had
quite a conversation
But I knew right away,
without hesitation
If we tied the knot,
they would be my obligation
So I took off faster than citation
Forgot all about my infatuation
I'd rather be single without obliga tion
Than to yield to that girl and her temptation
I would not yield to temptation
