Relax Max - Dinah Washington, Quincy Jones, Quincy Jones Orchestra

Relax, Max

Your nerves are just like jumpin' jacks, Max

Your heart is thumpin' with a crazy sound

Hear it pound

Bumpin', bumpin', bumpin'

Jumpin' up and down

Stay cool, fool

Just take it easy

That’s the rule, fool

The evenin' hasn’t even started yet

So, my pet

Control yourself, control yourself

Don’t get upset

Don’t think I’m cold if I say you’re too bold

I’ve been fooled by that moon up above

I want your kiss just as you want my kiss

But a kiss is no kiss without love

So relax, Max

I hate to stop you in your tracks, Max

But first you gotta prove your love to me When you do

I’ll love you, love you, love you

Like you want me to Don’t think I’m cold if I say you’re too bold

I’ve been fooled by that moon up above

I want your kiss just as you want my kiss

But a kiss is no kiss without love

So relax, Max

I hate to stop you in your tracks, Max

But first you gotta prove your love to me When you do

I’ll love you, love you, love you

Like you want me to Ah, come on, relax, Max

Your nerves are kinda bad there, boy

Hold it Down, boy

Take it easy, fool

Relax yourself

The evening’s young yet

Mmm, come on and relax, Max

Relax yourself
