I Said My Pyjamas - And Put on My Prayers - Doris Day

My baby kissed me goodnight,

and I am glad to relate

that by the time I got home,

I was feeling great

I climbed up the door

and opened the stairs.

I said my pajamas

and put on my prayers.

I turned off the bed

and crawled into the light.

and all because you kissed me goodnight.

Next morning, I woke

and scrambled my shoes.

I shined up an egg,

then I toasted the news,

I buttered my tie

and took another bite.

and all because you kissed me goodnight.

By evening I felt normal,

so we went out again.

You said, "Goodnight," and kissed me.

I hurried home and then,

I climbed up the door

and opened the stairs.

I said my pajamas

and put on my prayers.

I turned off the bed

and crawled into the light,

and all because you kissed me goodnight.

I powdered my hair

and pinned up my nose.

I hung up the bath

and I turned on my clothes.

I put out the clock

and wound the cat up tight,

and all because you kissed me goodnight.

I ran up the shade

and pulled down the stair.

I curled up the rug

and I vacuumed my hair.

I just couldn't tell my left foot from my right,

and all because you kissed me goodnight.

By evening I felt normal,

so we went out again.

You said, "Goodnight," and kissed me.

I hurried home and then,

I lifted the preacher

and called up the phone.

I spoke to the dog

and I threw my Ma a bone.

'Twas mid-night and yet,

the sun was shining bright.

and all because you kissed me goodnight.
