Hello dear singers and music lovers... Here's my entry for Music for Steem - I Love Sixties.

The song "Yeh Yeh" was first recorded as a rumba-style instrumental composition by Cuban musician Mongo Santamaria in 1963.

In the same year, Jon Hendricks of the jazz vocal trio Lambert, Hendricks and Bavan wrote the lyrics and recorded the song with his band. On January 8, 1965, the song topped the UK Singles Chart for 2 weeks.

So, here's my entry.


"Yeh Yeh" - Ready, Steady, Go!



By Georgie Fame and The Blue Flames


Every evening, when all my day's work is through
I call my baby, and ask her what shall we do
I mention movies, but she don't seem to dig that
And then she asks me, why don't I come to her flat
And have some supper and let the evening pass by
By playing records besides a groovy hi-fi
I say yeh yeh, and that's what I say
I say yeh yeh
My baby loves me, she gets me feeling so fine
And when she loves me, she let's me know that she's mind
And when she kisses, I feel the fire get hot
She never misses, she gives it all that she's got
And when she asks me if everything is OK
I got my answer, the only thing I can say
I say yeh yeh, and that's what I say
I say yeh yeh
We'll play a melody and
Turn the lights down low so that none can see
We gotta do that, we gotta do that
We gotta do that, we gotta do that
And there'll be no one else alive
In all the world 'cept you and me
Yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh
Yeh yeh, yeh yeh
Pretty baby, I never knew such a thrill

It's hard I tell you, because I'm trembling still
But pretty baby, I want you all for my own
I think I'm ready to leave those others alone
Don't need to ask me if everything is OK
I got my answer, the only thing I can say
I say yeh yeh, and that's what I say
I say yeh yeh, and that's what I say
Yeh yeh
We'll play a melody and
Turn the lights down low so that none can see
We gotta do that, we gotta do that
We gotta do that, we gotta do that
And there'll be no one else alive
In all the world 'cept you and me
Yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh yeh
Yeh yeh, yeh yeh
Pretty baby, I never knew such a thrill
It's hard I tell you, because I'm trembling still
But pretty baby, I want you all for my own
I think I'm ready to leave those others alone
Don't need to ask me if everything is OK
I got my answer, the only thing I can say
I say yeh yeh, and that's what I say
I say yeh yeh, and that's what I say
I say yeh yeh, and that's what I say
I say yeh yeh
