Louis Prima — Shepherd Boy

A shepherd boy in a land you've never seen Saw a girl busting out in bloom He knew his sheep, but girls he'd never seen Flipped his turban just smellin' her perfume [Keely Smith] Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy She's a flame, but you're no match Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy You'll do the chasing and she will make the catch [Louis Prima] I love you, I love you [Keely] The shepherd sings his heart out [Louis Prima] I love you, I love you [Keely] The shepherd sings his heart out [Louis] He followed her through a mile of desert sand She walked like honey poured when it's warm His heart kept time just like an army band Wish for a payment to put down on a farm [Keely] Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy You've walked a mile for what you're gonna get Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy Stop making plans, you haven't got her yet [Louis] I love you, I love you [Keely] The shepherd sings his heart out [Louis] I love you, I love you [Keely] The shepherd sings his heart out [Louis] She dropped her veil and he recovered it He gazed upon her beauty rare He thought he was the first one to discover it Noticed four rings on her fingers there [Keely] Oh, Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy No need to run, your flock's asleep Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy You're singin' now, but you're singin' to your sheep [Louis] I love you, I love you [Keely] The shepherd sings his heart out [Louis] I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you [Keely] The shepherd sings his heart out [Louis] Well that's alright, I'm through with you chicks anyway And I'm going back and watching my sheep [Meh]
