Heat Wave

IRVING BERLIN

Oh! We're having a heatwave, a tropical heatwave
The temperature's rising, it isn't surprising
She certainly can can-can
She started a heatwave by letting her seat wave
In such a way that the customers say
That she certainly can can-can

Gee,gee! Her anatomy makes the mercury rise to 93
Having a heatwave, a tropical heatwave, the way that she moves
That thermometer proves that she certainly can
(What's your name honey? Pablo), certainly can
(Chico, Miguelito, Pablo, Chico, Miguelito) oh, can-can

Pablo, it's saying here in the weather report
It's saying a fairly warm air is moving in from (Where?) Jamaica
Moderately high air pressure will cover the NE and (where else?)
The Deep South, Small danger of (what?) Fruit frost!
Hot and humid nights can be expected
Vincent 95, Guadeloupe 97, Santo Domingo 99, Pardon me? 105?
We're having a heatwave, a tropical heatwave
The temperature's rising, it isn't surprising
I certainly can can-can

I started this heatwave in such a way
That the customers say that I certainly can can-can
The man who need makes the mercury rise to 93
We're having a heatwave, a tropical, a tropical heatwave
The way that I move, that thermometer grooves
She certainly certainly certainly can
I certainly, certainly, certainly can can-can
