You Hit The Spot

(album: Swing Softly - 1958)

You're as thrilling as a college cheer
As sympathetic as a baby's tear
You're as smooth as a kitten's ear
I never would trade you
For all the money in the mint
It feels like love
It looks like love
Or can you take a hint?

You hit the spot
Like a balmy breeze on a night in May
You hit the spot
Like a cool mint julep on a summer day
You hit a new high in my estimation
I had to fall
'Cause you've got so much on the ball!

Oh you hit the spot
Like the first embrace with a modest tide
You hit the spot
Like a pipe and slippers by a fireside
Matter-of-factly
I don't know exactly
What it is that you've got
But ooh you hit the spot!

Oh you hit the spot
Like the first embrace with a modest tide
You hit the spot
Like the pipe and slippers by a fireside
Matter-of-factly
I don't know exactly
What it is that you've got
But ooh ooh you you you you hit the spot
