You Coulda Knocked Me Over With A Feather Lyrics > Some Like It Hot

[DAPHNE, spoken]
I don’t have the word for what I feel. I just feel more like myself?than?I have in?all my life!

(sung)
Tonight in Mexico
Joe, I?felt something click
Yes, I got turned around while the other girls got sick
I crossed the border, Joe
And thank you for the shove
Because tonight, I realized
Daphne is my one true love!
And
You

Coulda knocked me over with a feather
You coulda knocked this train off its track
For weeks I’ve had a funny feeling
That something was revealin'
Now this genie’s out the bottle
And she ain’t goin' back!

Yes I have tried to love many ladies
Back when I sang in a much lower key
Now you could knock me over with a feather, ‘cause, Joe
The lady that I’m lovin' is me!

I love to be belle of the ball
I love the shape of this leg
So tails and tuxes, fare thee well!
Because you can’t undo a fall
You can’t unscramble an egg
And now that it is chimed
There’s no un-ringing this bell!

You coulda knocked me over with a feather
You coulda stole the ice from a cube
For weeks I’ve wrestled the suspicion
That’s come to a fruition
Now you’ll never get the toothpaste
Back in the tube!

I hope the girls I knew will forgive me
‘Cause ‘til I woke up, I just couldn’t see
But now you can knock me over with a feather, 'cause, Joe
The lady that I’m lovin' is me!
Yes, the lady that I’m lovin' is

You always loved the way that I slapped that bass
And now a spotlight’s shining on me!
Back home in 'Illinois(e)'
I’d danced like all the boys
But now I’m ridin' high
My voice and heels have hit the sky!
Jerry's always walked behind
And only survived
But now I’m leading the parade
‘Cause Daphne’s arrived!
The die is cast
It's a fait accompli
No more living in the past
‘Cause Daphne is free!
Daphne is free!

No, I couldn’t sing in flats if I tried
I know you're finding it confusing
This song that I am choosing
But Joe, it’s time to blow your horn
To “Here Comes The Bride”!

So please believe me when I say
We’re still partners
But now instead of just a duo
We’re three, I see
That I could knock you over with a feather
But I know
Daphne is the best part of me, oh yeah
Daphne is who I
Love to be!
Oh, yeah!
