Dean Martin(born Dino Paul Crocetti, June 7, 1917 – December 25, 1995) American actor and singer, couldn't read music, and yet recorded more than 100 albums and 600 songs, racking up major hits such as "That's Amore", "Volare", "You're Nobody Till Somebody Loves You" and his signature tune "Everybody Loves Somebody". Besides being the ladies' man counterpart of Jerry Lewis in a series of comedies, besides being a ratpacker, Dean Martin, in his long variety show run on NBC, often seemed to be dead drunk on national TV. The fact that America saw his show as charming and wholesome just the same is a testament not only to the culture of the time but to Martin's own great charm. Dean was well known as a family man and his "drinking" was just an act. It used to bother Frank Sinatra (who was a big drinker) that Dean went home early to be with his wife and kids and not go hitting the bars with him.

Ain't That A Kick In The Head Lyrics
Dean Martin
How lucky can one guy be?
I kissed her and she kissed me.
Like a fella once said:
"Ain't that a kick in the head?"
The room was completely black,
I hugged her and she hugged back.
Like a sailor said quote:
"Ain't that a hole in a boat?"
My head keeps spinnin',
I got to sleep and keep grinnin'
If this is just the beginnin'
My life is gonna be beautiful.
I sunshine enough to spread,
it's just like the fella said.
Tell me quick,
ain't that 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 got to sleep and keep grinnin'
If this is just the beginnin'
My life is gonna be beautiful.
She's telling me we'll be wed,
She's picked out a king size bed,
I couldn't feel any better or I'll be sick.
Tell me quick,
Oh, ain't that a kick...?
Tell me quick,
ain't that a kick in the head
