Jeannie, what you gonna do that for?
You went and kissed me outside the door
With your mouth,
crying against the windowpane
Jeannie, what you gonna say that for?
You went and told them
you loved me more
And your father has lived his life for you
Gene, you showed me what love is
You showed me what love is
And I feel ten feet high
Jeannie, you look so
silly standing there
With your suitcase and teddy bear
And teardrops falling from
your sea of blue eyes
Genie, they tried to say I was wrong for you, tried to say I was bad for you,
but you know I'd give my life for you
Genie, you showed me what love is,
you showed me what love is, and I feel it, ten feet high
Oh, little genie
You showed me what love is
You showed me what love is
And I feel
Ten feet high
Oh, genie
What you gonna say that boy
You went and told them
you loved me more
When your heart has let this light of
war in
Jeannie, you showed me what love is
You showed me what love is
And I feel it tearing me
apart
She showed me what love is
And I feel so bad I cry
