The Calypsonians were all gathered together
 Singin' such a mournful tune
 I don't know if it was in the summer time
 It could be the month of May or June
 
Believe me baby, now I love you the best
 When I'm by myself I poke out me chest
 Over lovin', over, over, over, over lovin' you
 
I do believe to my soul
 I'm going to take across the deep blue sea
 Like my friend Carlos on the Hokule'a down to old Fiji
 
I love you baby, now you love me deepest
 When I'm by myself I poke out me chest
 Oh, I'm over, can't get over lovin' you
 
I said, love me baby, baby love me, love me
 Love me, love me through and through
 Love me in the sunshine, darling and from moon to moon
 
Believe me baby, now I love you the best
 When I'm by myself I poke out me chest
 Over lovin', over, over lovin' you
 
If you love me like you say you love me
 Love me like you say you do
 Love me baby, in the sunshine, love me from moon to moon
 
Believe me baby, now I love you the best
 When I'm by myself I poke out me chest
 Over, over, over lovin' you
 
Well, the blues chased up a rabbit
 [bad word] a quarter mile
 That poor little furry bunny scared like a baby child
 
Believe me baby, now you love me the best
 When I'm by myself I poke out me chest
 Over lovin', lovin' over, lovin' over you
 
The Calypsonians were all gathered together
 Playin' such a mournful tune
 I don't know if it was in the summer time
 Maybe in the May or June
 
Believe me baby, now I love you the best
 When I'm by myself I poke out me chest
 Over lovin', lovin' lovin', lovin', lovin', baby, lovin' you
