Normally Norma's kissing me just about this time every morning

With the wink in her eye she whispers goodbye

Then she tells me somethin' sweet and knocks me off of my feet

And normally Norma thinks of me as just as the swellest guy in the world

Oh but normally Norma loves me

One word led to another over a harmless joke

Then Norma went home to her mother I guess her little heart was broke

Oh oh normally Norma's waitin' on me every evening when the sun goes down

When I get home from work with my dirty old shirt

She pulls off my shoes and it's a goodbye blues

Cause normally Norma tenderly cuddles up to me but normally Norma loves me

[ piano ]

Now one word led to another...

Oh but normally Norma loves me
