You Can Hear The Theme Song Lyrics In This Episode
If you watch the episode called Lucy’s Last Birthday and listen carefully, you will be able to hear the theme song lyrics. As we all know, the lyrics go like this: “I love Lucy and she loves me. We’re as happy as two can be. Sometimes we quarrel but then how we love making up again. Lucy kisses like no one can. She’s my missus and I’m her man.
