I fell in love with you the first time I looked into
Them there eyes
You have a certain little cute way of flirting with
Them there eyes
They make me feel so happy
They make me feel so blue
I’m falling
No stalling
Fallin’ in a great big way for you

My heart is jumpin’
You started something with
Them there eyes
You better look out little brown eyes if you’re wise
They sparkle
They bubble
Get you in a lot of trouble
Ah, baby
Them there eyes

(bridge)

I fell in love with you the first time I looked into
Them there eyes
You have a certain way of flirting with
Them there eyes
They make me feel so happy
They make me feel so blue
Falling, yes falling
Fallin’ in a great big way for you

My heart is jumpin’
You started something with
Them there eyes
You better watch out little brown eyes if you’re wise

Get you in a lot of trouble
Ah, Mister
Talkin’ about those eyes
