How could she reject me?
Send me on my way?
How could she suspect me
Of leading her astray?

I met her accidentally
And I asked to see her home
She told me she wouldn't mind
And we commenced to roam

Hidee hidee ho (making love wherever we go)
Hidee hidee hee (making love, just you and me)
Hidee hidee hoo (making love, just me and you)
Hee

I took out my pen knife
And showed it at this rake
He looked at me as if to say
You're making a mistake

I do not frighten easily
Yet no weapons I possess
No matter what you thinkin', son
You, you better second guess

Hidee hidee ho (making love wherever we go)
Hidee hidee hee (making love, just you and me)
Hidee hidee hoo (making love, just me and you)
Hee

Hidee hidee ho (making love on the highway bump)
Hidee hidee hee (making love in a pile of rope)
Hidee hidee hoo (making love on the driveway ramp)
Hee

Hidee hidee ho (making love wherever we go)
Hidee hidee hee (making love, just you and me)
Hidee hidee hoo (making love, just me and you)
Hee
