Stuff Like That There Songtext
von Bette Midler

"Here she is, direct from the convent, Miss Dixie Leonard"

I was alone on a shelf
In a world by myself.
Oh, where could my prince charming be?
But a man came along,
Made my life like a song,
And taught me these words of ecstasy,
Tenderly.

I want some huggin′ and some squeezin'
And some muggin′ and some teasin'
And some stuff like that there.
I want some pettin' and some spoonin′
And some happy honeymoonin′
And some stuff like that there.


I used to think that love
Was just a lot o' rubbish;
A mess o′ cabbage, a mess o' cabbage.
But now my attitude
Is wholly lovey dovish,
And baby, you, you′ve done it!

I want some kissin' and some hopin′
And some missin' and some mopin'
And some stuff like that there.
I want some leapin′ and some chasin′
And some weepin' and some pacin′
And some stuff like that there.

And when I get a certain feelin' I confess it.
There′s really only one expression to express it.
I want some huggin' and some squeezin′
And some muggin' and some teasin'
And some leapin′ and some chasin′
And some weepin' and some pacin′
And some stuff,
I want some stuff like that there.

I used to think romance was bunk,
A double mickey for the ickey.
But all at once my heart was sunk,
And baby, you, you've done it!


I want some kissin′ and some hopin'
And some missin′ and some mopin'
And some stuff like that there.
I want some leapin' and some chasin′
And some weepin′ and some pacin'
And some stuff like that there.

And when i get a certain feelin′ i confess it.
There's really only one expression to express it.
I want some huggin′, squeezin',
Muggin′, teasin' and some stuff,
Stuff like that there!
Oooooooooh!
