Hey,  little girl,  comb your hair,  fix your makeup,
soon  he will open  the door.
Don't  think because  there's a ring  on your finger,
you  shouldn't try  anymore.
-5 -5
 For wives should always be lovers, too.
-5 -5
 Run to his arms the moment he comes home to you.
  -5
 I'm warn....ing you.
Day  after day,  there are girls  at the office,
and  men will always  be men.
Don't  send him off  with your hair  still in curlers.
You  might not see  him again.
-5 -5
 For wives should always be lovers, too.
-5 -5
 Run to his arms the moment he comes home to you.
  -5
 He's al.....most here.
Hey,  little girl,  better wear  something pretty,
something  you'd wear  to go  to the city.
 And dim  all the lights,  pour the wine,  start the music.
Time  to get ready  for love.
Dim  all the lights,  pour the wine,start  the music.
Time  to get ready  for love.
Time  to get ready...time  to get ready  for love.
Time  to get ready...time  to get ready  for love.
 A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
