Heat Wave - Mildred Bailey
Written by:Irving Berlin
A heat wave blew right into town last week
She came from the island of Martinique
The can can she dances will make you fry
The can can is really the reason why
We're having a heat wave a tropical heat wave
The temperature's rising it isn't surprising
She certainly can can can
She started the heat wave by letting her seat wave
And in such a way that the customers say that
She certainly can can can
Gee
Her anatomy
Made the mercury
Jump to ninety three
Yes sir
We're having a heat wave a tropical heat wave
The way that she move that thermometer proves that
She certainly can can can
