Instead Of Song Lyrics
[PEACHUM]
Instead of, instead of
Staying home in bed at night behaving
[MRS. PEACHUM]
They want love, they want love
Chasing up the alley with a sentimental craving
[PEACHUM & MRS. PEACHUM]
They got those "Moon over Dock Street"
They got the "You feel my heart beating" blues
They got that "Anywhere you go, I will go with you"
For that old fashioned love tickle still makes news
[MRS. PEACHUM]
Instead of, instead of
Going about their business and behaving
[PEACHUM]
They make love, they make love
'Til the man is through and she is sorry that she gave in
[PEACHUM & MRS. PEACHUM]
Now where's your "Moon over Dock Street"?
What happened to the "You feel my heart beating" blues?
Where is that "Anywhere you go, I will go with you"?
Call that old fashioned love tickle last year's news
