Casanova Cricket Songtext
von Hoagy Carmichael

Someone′s in the meadow, down in Lover's Lane
Makin′ lots of racket, raisin' lots of Cain
Casanova cricket, that's the name you raise
Raisin′ all that racket, stayin′ out so late
Casanova cricket, it just ain't right
Sleepin′ all day and a-kissin' all night


Casanova cricket, what would some folks say
Can′t you do your courtin' by the light of day
You needn′t act so mighty righteous with that innocent mug
'Cause you're a kissin′ bug

Casanova cricket, why for goodness sake
Don′t you know you're keepin′ decent folk awake
Casanova cricket, now it just ain't right
Sleepin′ all day and a-kissin' all night

Casanova cricket, there you go again
You got yourself a ladybug, as sure as sin
Go find another place to kiss, another place to hug
′Cause you're a kissin' bug

A rickety, rackety, crickety, crackety kissin′ bug
