You got a thing about you
   I just can't live without you
   I really want you, Elenore, near me
   Your looks intoxicate me
   Even though your folks hate me
   There's no one like you, Elenore, really
  
   Chorus:
   Elenore, gee I think you're swell
   And you really do me well
   You're my pride and joy, et cetera
   Elenore, can I take the time
   To ask you to speak your mind
   Tell me that you love me better
  
   I really think you're groovy
   Let's go out to a movie
   What do you say, now, Elenore, can we?
   They'll turn the lights way down low
   Maybe we won't watch the show
   I think I love you, Elenore, love me
  
   Chorus:
   Elenore, gee I think you're swell
   And you really do me well
   You're my pride and joy, et cetera
   Elenore, can I take the time
   To ask you to speak your mind
   Tell me that you love me better
  
   Elenore, gee I think you're swell ah-hah
   Elenore, gee I think you're swell ah-hah
   ...hah
