| Lyrics: | I've got you under my skin,
I've got you deep in the heart of me,
So deep in my heart . .
. you're really a part of me,
I've got you under my skin!
I tried so . . . not to
give in,
I said to myself . . . this affair, never will go so well!
But why should I try
to resist,
When 'Darling' I know so well,
I've got you under my skin!
I'd
sacrifice anything, come what might,
For the sake of having you near!
In spite of the
warning voice, that comes in the night,
And repeats, and repeats, in my ear . . .
"Don't you know little fool . . . you never can win!
Use your mentality, wake up to
reality!"
But each time I do . . . just the thought of you,
Makes me 'stop' before I
begin,
'Cause I've got you . . . Hmm I got you,
I got you . . . under my skin!
~ from the 1936 Hollywood musical "Born to Dance"
