Ain't That a Kick in the Head

Dean Martin

How lucky can one guy be?
I kissed her and she kissed me
Like the fella once said
"Ain't that a kick in the head?"

The room was completely black
I hugged her and she hugged back
Like the sailor said, quote
"Ain't that a hole in a boat?"

My head keeps spinnin'
I go to sleep and keep grinnin'
If this is just the beginnin'
My life is gonna be beautiful

I've sunshine enough to spread
It's just like the fella said
Tell me quick, ain't love a kick in the head?

Like the fella once said
"Ain't that a kick in the head?"

Like the sailor said, quote
"Ain't that a hole in a boat?"

My head keeps spinnin'
I go to sleep and keep grinnin'
If this is just the beginnin'
My life is gonna be beautiful

She's tellin' me we'll be wed
She's picked out a king-size bed
I couldn't feel any better or I'd be sick
Tell me quick, oh, ain't love a kick?
Tell me quick, ain't love a kick in the head?

    My Interpretation
    Alright, I LOVE this song. My interpretation of it can be summed up pretty quickly: love is amazing. I mean, the whole song, ol' Dino's singing about how this is so crazy, that it's like getting kicked in the head.. but not in a bad way. Like, you feel so amazing, so great, but at the same time, also know that it's almost insane that it could all work out this way. "So tell me quick, ain't love a kick, in the heaaaad~" Such a freakin' timeless song.

    I first heard this song in "Fools Rush In" with Matthew Perry and Salma Hyak. LOL! That's kind of embarassing to say. Anyway, what a catchy song this is! I love it!
