Fit as a Fiddle (and Ready for Love) Lyrics

Feel like a feather that's floating on air

Soon the church bells will be ringing
And I'll march with Ma and Pa
All the church bells will be ringing
With a hey naughty-knotty and a hot cha-cha

Hi diddle-diddle, my baby's okay
Ask me a riddle, and what did she say?
Fit as a fiddle and ready for love
