In the Mood Lyrics

Bette Midler Album

Jumping with my boy, Sid

right here in the city.

Don't you know that is was grand?

Really grand, so grand.

And then you came along,

then you came along, boy.

And sang your groovy song,

sang a song and I asked:



Mr. Whatchacallem, whatcha doing tonight?

Hope you're in the mood

because I'm feeling just right.

How's about a corner

with a table for two?

Where the music's mellow

is a gay rendezvous.

There's no chance romancing

with a blue attitude.

You know you got to do some dancing

to get in the mood.



Mr. Watchacallem, I'm indebted to you.

You're here. It goes to show what good influence can do.

Never felt so happy or so fully alive.

He's a jam a jumpin', it's a powerful jive!

Swing-a-roo is giving me a new attitude.

My heart is full of rhythm

and I'm in the mood.



In the mood (oh boy) be mine forever.

In the groove (that boy) and leave me never.

In the mood (oh joy) give me some kissing.

You know it won't be long

before you're in the mood!



Don't be rude, I love you madly.

It's up to you, I'll take you gladly.

Love is blind, my vision's hazy.

It didn't take me long to say

I'm in the mood!



Do ba do ba do bop boo da da day.

Ba da-n-da da-n do da-n do day.

Who's that guy with the beautiful eyes?

'N' look at those lips, I'd try 'em for size.

Hey! Swing with me!

What a wing it'd be!

May I intrude? It's time to dance

and I'm in the mood!



Oh, hold me darling, let's dance.

What a dreamy romance.

It's a quarter to three.

There's a mess-o-that moon.

Let's share it with me.

You know, I think it's rude

to keep me this way

when I'm in the mood.

I'm in the mood, in the groove!

In the mood, ah, ah, ah!



Man-oh-man, wow!

Now you really got me lookin'.

Oh, and you really got me cookin', oh!



My heart went flip, my brain went skip.

I said c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon.

I'm hot now! I love you madly!

Right now! I'll take you gladly!

Tight now! I'll be in!

And now I'm really in the mood, boy!



Rompin'! Stompin'! Smokin'!

Why don't we go somewhere and smooch, boy?



It's got to be right now!

It's gotta be right now!

It's got to be right now!

I'm only saying that it didn't take me long,

didn't take me long, didn't take me long

to say I'm in the mood.

Your flat foot floozy wants a good boy!
