Mahna Mahna: I know a couple, name of Jack and Jill.
They love each other and they always will.
`Cause when Jill gets an itch in the middle of her back,
All she does is turn to Jack.
And she says:
Jill: Scratch my back!
Oh, baby, won`t you scratch my back?
Really nothing to it!
Love it when you do it!
Baby, won`t you scratch my back?
Mahna Mahna: When Jack feels itchy, they just make a switch.
He turns to Jill and says:
Jack: I`ve got an itch!
Come on, Jilly, won`t you be a peach
And scratch the itch that I can`t reach?
And you can scratch my back!
Oh, honey, won`t you scratch my back?
Really nothing to it!
Love it when you do it!
Honey, won`t you scratch my back?
Mahna Mahna: They`ll be so happy `til the end of time,
Sayin`:
Jill: I`ll scratch your back if you`ll scratch mine!
Jack: We`re lovey-dovey as a couple can be,
`Cause I got you and you got me!
Jill: And you can scratch my back!
Jack: And, honey, you can scratch my back!
Jill: Really nothing to it!
Jack: Love it when you do it!
Jill: Baby, won`t you scratch my back?
Jack: Honey, won`t you scratch my back?
Jack and Jill: Love it when you scratch my back!
(During the song, Jack and Jill take turns scratching each other. But at the song`s end, we see Mahna Mahna between them, scratching both backs at once!)
