Shangri-Las - Give Him A Great Big Kiss w/ LYRICS

Give Him A Great Big Kiss - "The Shangri-Las" - Peak Position;#18 in 1965

When I Say "I'm in Love you best beleive I'm in love luv'

Here comes my guy, walking down the street.
Look how he walks, with a dancing beat (Da-Da-Da-Da)
Thick wavy hair, (Da-Da-Da-Da)a bit too long (Da-Da-Da-Da)
All day long he's singing his song

And when I see him in the street,
My heart takes a leap and skips a beat,
Gonna' walk right up to him
Give him a great big kiss Mwaa
Tell him that I love him.
Tell him that I care.
Tell him that I'll always be there.

(spoken)
What color are his eyes?
I don't know he's always wearing shades
Is he tall?
Well, I've got to look up.
Yeah well I hear he's bad.
Mmm, he's good, bad, but he's not evil.

Tell me more, tell me more.
Big bulky sweaters...(Tell me more)
To match his eyes...(Tell me more)
Dirty fingernails...(Tell me more)
Oh boy what a prize.
Tight tapered pants, high button shoes.
He's always looking like he's got the blues.

And when I see him in the street.
My heart takes a leap and skips a beat.
Gonna' walk right up to him.
Give him a great big kiss Mwaa .
Tell him that I love him.
Tell him that I care.
Tell him that I'll always be there.

(spoken)
Is he a good dancer?
What do ya mean if hes a good dancer?
How does he dance?
Close very, very close...

@Sakiera423 same here.... great movie and soundtrack

[rbain007]

I never realized it but VV Brown nicely used the first line of the song 'You best believe i'm in love. L-O-V-E"!

I had never heard that part of this song before, nice to know she got her idea from this song!!!

Charted in Detroit in 1964, not '65.

[VictorianDarling]

I was like... why does this sound so familiar... and I realized that Nikki & Rich sampled this song! I like this original much better.

[malleusss555]

you best believe i'm in love LUV

[LadyStardustVertigo]

The way of saying "Close, very very close" makes me crazy. It just sounds too hot to handle and I'm bloody straight!

[Sakiera423]

@Brent441

Also, "Tight Tapered" pants " might well be "tight PEGGED pants" as I well remember asking Mom to "Peg" my jeans since all the ones you could buy "in the day" were quite baggy in the legs.....SO uncool.

@Brent441

Since you asked:

After "Oh boy what a prize" the twins reply again "tell me more"

After "tight tapered pants', the reply "he's untrue"

After "high button shoes" the reply " he's untrue"

After "he's always looking like he's got the blues" the reply "he's untrue"
