NOTHIN' SHAKIN'
(Fontaine - Colacray - Lampert - Gluck)
EDDIE FONTAINE (Argo 5309, 1958)

I'm finding out what love is all about
And every day at three when school is out
I see my baby, I get weak in the knees
There's nothin' shakin' but the leaves on the trees
Why must she be such a dog-gone tease
There's nothin' shakin' but the leaves on the trees
We meet the gang and go to Rockin' Joe's
The cats are stompin' on their heels and toes
I grab my baby, try to give her a squeeze
Nothin' shakin' but the leaves on the trees
My daddy told me there'll be times like these
There's nothin' shakin' but the leaves on the trees
She's got a way that makes me act like a fool
Oh, spends my money and she plays me cruel
I'm beggin' for her kisses on bended knees
Give me some lovin' baby, please-please-please
But I keep tryin' hard to make her mine
Someday the winds will blow, the sun will shine
Until that time she puts my heart at ease
There's nothin' shakin' but the leaves on the trees
She locked my heart and threw away the key
There's nothin' shakin' but the leaves on the trees
