Do, Do, Do
George Gershwin * Track #4 On Oh, Kay!
Do, Do, Do Lyrics
(Verse 1)
[JIMMY]
I remember the bliss
Of that wonderful kiss
I knew that a boy
Could never have more joy
From any little miss
[KAY]
I remember it quite
'Twas a wonderful night
[JIMMY]
Oh, how I'd adore it
If we could encore it
(Chorus)
Oh, do, do, do
What you've done
Done, done before, baby
Do, do, do
What I do
Do, do adore, baby
Let's try again
Sigh again
Fly again to heaven
Baby, see
It's A, B, C
I love you
And you love me
I know, know, know
What a beau, beau, beau
Should do, baby
So don't, don't, don't
Say it won't, won't, won't
Come true, baby
My heart begins to hum
Dum, de, dum
De, dum, dum, dum
So do, do, do
What you've done
Done, done before
(Verse 2)
[KAY]
Sweets we've tasted before
Cannot stand an encore
You know that a miss
Who always gives a kiss
Would soon become a bore
[JIMMY]
I can't see that at all
True love never should pall
[KAY]
I was only teasing
What you did was pleasing
(Chorus)
Oh, do, do, do
What you've done
Done, done before, baby
Do, do, do
What I do
Do, do adore, baby
Let's try again
Sigh again
Fly again to heaven
Baby, see
It's A, B, C
I love you
And you love me
I know, know, know
What a beau, beau, beau
Should do, baby
So don't, don't, don't
Say it won't, won't, won't
Come true, baby
My heart begins to hum
Dum, de, dum
De, dum, dum, dum
So do, do, do
What you've done
Done, done before

From Ira Gershwin’s Lyrics on Several Occasions:
The lyric isn’t much to look at, but its sounds of triply repeated syllables were effective over the footlights. The duet was sung with a somewhat faster and steadier beat than would be done today, and came over to the audience with the intended resu...
