Lyrics

Summer breeze easin' back the curtains in my bedroom
Ceilin' fan stirrin' up the heat of the afternoon
I'm puttin' on my lipstick, my ruby red lipstick:
Nice an' thick, baby

It ain't the gettin', it's the wishin';
It ain't the catchin', it's the fishin'
Anticipation got me waitin' for your sweet love, baby
Sweet love

Cotton sheets out there on the line, swingin' to and fro
Clawford tub drip, drip, drip, ah, honey, nice an' slow
I'm puttin' on my new dress
My pretty new blue, blue dress, oh yes!

It ain't the gettin', it's the wishin';
It ain't the catchin', it's the fishin'
Anticipation got me waitin' for your sweet love, darlin'
Sweet love

Let's get your whispers, honey, tangled up with mine
Hurry on over an' just take your sweet, sweet time
Oooh

Instrumental break
(Take your time, baby.)

It ain't the catchin', it's the reachin';
It ain't the heaven, it's the preachin'
Anticipation got me waitin'

It ain't the gettin', it's the wishin';
It ain't the catchin', baby, it's the fishin'
Anticipation got me waitin' for your sweet love, baby. (sweet, sweet love.)
Sweet love

Sweet love, darlin'
Mmm, mmm, mm

Summer breeze, straight through my cotton sheets
Mmm, mmm, mmm, sweet
Oh, you can leave your hat on baby
Sweet, love. (sweet, sweet love.)
