Текст песни Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong - Let's Do It (Let's Fall in Love)

When the little bluebird,
Who has never said a word,
Starts to sing «Spring, spring»
When the little bluebell,
In the bottom of the dell,
Starts to ring «Ding, ding»
When the little blue clerk,
In the middle of his work,
Starts a tune to the moon up above,
It is nature, that's all,
Simply telling us to fall
In love. Oh yes

And that's why birds do it, bees do it,
Even educated fleas do it,
Let's do it, let's fall in love.

In Spain, the best upper sets do it,
Lithuanians and Letts do it,
Let's do it, mama let's fall in love.

Oh the Dutch in old Amsterdam do it,
Not to mention the Finns,
Folks in Siam do it,
Just think of Siamese twins.
Some Argentines, without means, do it,
People say, in Boston, even beans do it, mmm
Let's do it, let's fall in love.

Romantic sponges, they say, do it,
Oysters, down in Oyster Bay, do it,
Let's do it, mama let's fall in love.

Cold Cape Cod clams, 'gainst their wish, do it,
Even lazy jellyfish do it,
Let's do it, mama let's fall in love.

Electric eels, I might add, do it,
Though it shocks 'em, I know.
Why ask if shad do it?
Waiter, bring me shad roe.
In shallow shoals, English soles do it.
Goldfish, in the privacy of bowls, do it.
Let's do it, let's fall in love.

Oh the dragonflies, in the reeds, do it,
Sentimental centipedes do it,
Let's do it, mama let's fall in love.

Mosquitoes, heaven forbid, do it,
So does ev'ry katydid do it?
Let's do it, mama let's fall in love.

The most refined lady bugs do it,
When a gentleman calls,
Moths in your rugs, do it,
What's the use of moth balls?
Locusts in trees do it,
why even the bees do it,
Even overeducated fleas do it,
Let's do it, let's fall in love.

The chimpanzees, in the zoos, do it,
Some courageous kangaroos do it,
Let's do it, mama let's fall in love.

I'm sure giraffes, on the sly, do it,
Heavy hippopotami do it,
Let's do it, mama let's fall in love.

Old sloths who hang down from twigs do it,
Though the effort is great,
Sweet guinea pigs do it,
Buy a couple and wait.
Now the world admits
Bears in pits do it,
Even Pekineses in the Ritz, do it,
Let's do it, mama let's fall in love.
