Fats Waller - Breakin' the Ice Lyrics

Lyrics Breakin' the Ice - Fats Waller



She was as cool as could be,
Though I said hello to her twice;
Now I can take her to tea,
Looks like I′m breakin' the ice!
I call around every day,
And her people treat me so nice!
They seem to think I′m okay,
Looks like I'm breakin' the ice!
Bit by bit
I′ve been makin′ a hit,
I'm afraid everything′s gonna be alright, (if you know what I mean!)
Rome, they say,
Wasn't built in a day,
Or romance built in a night! (no!)
But we saw the ring in the store,
And I′m gonna save up the price.
I guess you know what it's for,
Looks like I′m breakin' the ice!
She was as cool as could be,
Though I said hello to her twice;
Now I can take her to tea,
Oh, it looks like I'm breakin′ the ice!
I call around every day,
And her people treat me so nice!
They seem to think I′m okay,
Looks like I'm breakin′ the ice!
Bit by bit
I've been makin′ a hit,
I'm afraid everything′s gonna be alright,
Rome, they say,
Wasn't built in a day,
Or romance built in a night!
Oh, we saw ring in the store,
And I'm gonna save up the price.
Oh, I guess you know what it′s for, (you don′t?)
Looks like I'm breakin′ the ice, yeah!
