* 4-bar intro

* Hook (Hip, hop, hoop . . . oh ho ah ha!
Hip, hop, hoop . . . oh ho ah ha! )

* Verse 1 Hip, I didn't know lips could kiss. (Hip hip)
Hup, I didn't know wives could flirt. (Hup hup)
Hoop, I didn't know girls could be like Tina Marie.
(Hoop hoop) Hip, I didn't know I could sing (Hip hip)
Like a penny boat in a gale.
What she's doin' will be the ruin of me. (Oh ho ha ha)

* Chorus Tina, Tina, Tina, Tina, Ah ha!
You sweet little schemer,
Tina Marie. (Tina, Tina Marie)
Oh, what you do.
Your brand of voodoo's too much for me..
Tina, Tina, Tina, Tina, Ah ha!
Oh, how I dream of stealin' your charms.
I'm gonna marry you.
Someday, I'll carry you off in my arms.

* Verse 2 (Oh ho ha ha) Hip, I used to be a good time Joe, (Hip hip)
Kiss a gal and just let her go. (go go)
Hoop, I really was dealin' free till Tina Marie.
(Mr. Cupid, you stacked the deck.
Why'd you throw me a queen by heck?
Now, she's braggin' she's fixed my wagon for me.
(Oh ho ah ha)

* Repeat chorus

* Verse 3 (Ho, Ho )
Hip, she tells me to jump an' I jump. (Jump, jump!)
Hoop, she tells me to dance an' I dance.
Gotta listen or get no kissin' from Tina Marie.
(Hip hip!) Hip, she really did clip my wings.
(Clip, clip!) Hoop, I'm lookin' at weddin' rings.
Is it human the things she's doin' to me? (Ho, Ho. Ah Ha!)

* 8-bar trombone break

* Outro Tina, Tina, Tina, Tina, Ah ha!
Oh, how I dream of stealin' your charms.
I'm gonna marry you.
Someday, I'll carry you off in my arms.
Off in my arms.
Oh Ho! Ha Ha!
Tina Marie!
