Datin’ (BOV - take 11 - 12) Songtext
von Elvis Presley

Datin′ is a game that grown-ups play
Datin' means acting in a silly way
Datin′ makes the girls start wiggle walking
Datin' makes a guy start baby talking


Dizzy like children on a merry-go-round
Grown-ups are the biggest kids, I found
You'd think they belong in a baby carriage
They′re doing things that lead to marriage
But don′t you laugh at what they do, oh, no
'Cause, some day, you′ll be datin', too

Datin′ makes a guy comb his hair just right
His gal can mess it up when they kiss goodnight
Datin' makes you quarrel and say you′ll break up
And just because it's so much fun to make up


Children can't wait to grow up, but then
They′re datin′, and they're acting like kids again
You′d think they belong in a baby carriage
They're doing things that lead to marriage
But don′t you laugh at what they do, oh, no
Some day, you'll be datin′, too
