Every night why do I shake with fright
Because my Dinah might change her mind about me
Got to tell you about Dinah
If she went to China
I'd would hop an ocean liner
Just to be with Dinah Lee
Dinah, is there anyone finer
In the state of Carolina
If there is and you know her
Show her to me
Dinah, with her Dixie eyes blazing
How I'd like to sit and gaze into the eyes of Dinah Lee
Every night why do I shake with fright
Because my Dinah might change her mind about me
Here's the story about Dinah
If she went to China
I'd would hop an ocean liner
Just to be with Dinah Lee
Pretty Dinah Lee
