Lyrics
I Doodilly Do (Lyrics and Melody: Francois Bessing, ASCAP, [email protected])
[Chorus] I do, I doodilly love you, I know this is true, I’m crazy about you.
I do, I doodilly love you, With all of my heart, I know this is true.
[Verse 1] I miss you, when we’re not together. Our time apart [breath] is filled with thoughts of you.
[Chorus 2] I do, I doodilly love you I know this is true, boo, I’m crazy for you.
[Bridge] Our life/has been filled/ with wonder Since/I got/ to know you.
Please join me/ on this new adventure, Smiling/ laughing, loving through good and through bad times.
(Key Change UP)
I do,I doodilly love you, I know this is true, I’m crazy about you.
I do, I doodilly love you, With all of my heart, I know this is true.
[The Love Howl]
I vow/ to care for and nurture/ To seek out your happiness, And let you fill mine.
I see/new life in our future, To love/ and to hold you, Will you be mine?
[The Other Spouse] I do, I doodilly love you, I know this is true I’m crazy about you.
I do, I doodilly love you, With all of my heart, I know this is true.
I miss you when we’re not together, Our time apart/is filled with thoughts of you.
[Together] I do, I doodilly love you, I know this is true love I’m crazy about you.
I do, I doodilly love you, With all of my heart, [Spouse 1] ‘Til death do us part. [Spouse 2] ‘Til death do us part. [Together] ‘Til death do us part.
I especially liked how the made-up “doodilly” hovers so close to “do really” and “do dearly” and that little bit of confusion makes me want to hear the phrase over and over, that feels a little like the addictive feeling of love or infatuation.
