Stewie's links are dead, unfortunately. Presumably Jim Dixon has the same as his first link.

These might be the other set? How does this compare to the Yellow Hammers'?

It's from http://www.rockabilly.nl/lyrics2/k0019.htm

KISS ME QUICK AND GO
(Landress - Moody)
MADDOX BROS. & ROSE (COLUMBIA 21181, 1953)

(Yeah, let's go man...)

On the porch while we sat spoonin'
Softly whispering', always coonin'
Thought the old folks and the children were in bed
I heard footsteps softly walkin'
And you bet I then quit talkin'
And she hist a little and squivered up and said

Kiss me quick and go away
And no-one will ever know
It's too late to longer stay
Kiss me quick, my honey
Oh, kiss me quick and go

(Just a little more love, kiss me quick)

And I thought that I was cheatin'
And my heart it was beatin'
When I saw her old man peepin' through the crack
Through the window I had business
Around the house I went wizzin'
With that big white angry bulldog on my track

Kiss me quick and go away
And no-one will ever know
It's too late to longer stay
Kiss me quick, my honey
Oh, kiss me quick and go

(Just one more time now, mighty pretty)

Ridin' bushes, jumpin' ditches
And I almost lost my britches
When that big white bulldog got me by my leg
Up the hill and down the level
I can outrun that big devil
With those words a-rangin' softly in my ears

Kiss me quick and go away
And no-one will ever know
It's too late to longer stay
Kiss me quick, my honey
Oh, kiss me quick and go

(Kiss me...)
