REFRAIN 1

You can do any little thing that you've a mind to,
But you must do it with a twinkle in your eye.
You can be unreserved and even unrefined, too,
But don't forget that little twinkle in your eye.

My aunt Clarisse mistook the iceman for my uncle.
Because she smiled my uncle Freddy passed it by.

Now, you can get away with murder of that kind, too,
But you must do it with a twinkle in your eye.

REFRAIN 2

You can break twenty hearts to get a new sensation,
But you must do it with a twinkle in your eye.
You may accompany a man on his vacation
If you return with just a twinkle in your eye.

My sister Sue once took a swim without a stitch on.
The cop who caught her took her to the jail nearby.
The judge who tried her held her for examination.
Of course, it may have been the twinkle in her eye.

REFRAIN 3

You can tell any man you're innocent like me now,
But you must do it with a twinkle in your eye.
There are a million manly goldfish in the sea now,
And you can hook them with a twinkle in your eye.

My uncle's wife once met a man who smiled so sweetly,
And Auntie didn't eye seem to like the guy.
But, then, my little cousin Bess is nearly three now,
And she has quite a little twinkle in her eye.
