Sample of Lyrics: You're so thrilling and I'm so willing, but you're as cold as can be. Take your hands out of your pockets and put your arms around me. You like pettin' and I like pettin', oh ow we two could agree. Take your hands out of your pockets and put your arms around me...
Research: I found reference that this song was performed by "Tommy Riggs and his imaginary Betty Lou" (Tommy Riggs has a baritone voice but could also talk/sing like a 7-year old girl - Betty Lou).
The little black and white cat in the cover art seems to possibly be a cameo of Felix the Cat - a popular little cartoon critter than showed up in silent films of the time.
