Muskrat, Muskrat
Candlelight
Doin’ the town and doin’ it right
In the evening
It’s pretty pleasing

Muskrat Suzie
Muskrat Sam
Do the jitterbug at a Muskrat Land
And they shimmy
Sam is so skinny

And they whirl
And they twirl and they tango
Singing and jingling a jangle
Float like the heavens above
Looks like Muskrat Love

Nibbling on bacon
Chewing on cheese
Sam says to Suzie
Honey, would you please be my Mrs
Suzie says yes with her kisses

Now, he’s tickling her fancy
Rubbing her toes
Muzzle to muzzle
Now anything goes as they wriggle
Sue starts to giggle

And they whirled
And they twirled and they tango
Singing and jingling a jangle
Floating like the heavens above
Looks like Muskrat Love
