Lyrics

  1. There she is! There she is!
    There’s what keeps me up at night
    Oh, gee whiz! Oh, gee whiz!
    There’s why I can’t eat a bite
    Those flaming eyes! That flaming youth
    Oh, Mister! Oh, Sister, tell me the truth

Chorus
Ain’t she sweet, see her coming down the street
Now I ask you very confidentially, ain’t she sweet?
Ain’t she nice, look her over once or twice
Now I ask you very confidentially, ain’t she nice?
Just cast an eye in her direction
Oh, me! oh, my! Ain’t that perfection?
I repeat, don’t you think that’s kind of neat?
And I ask you very confidentially, ain’t she sweet?

  1. Tell me where, tell me where
    Have you seen one just like that?
    I declare, I declare
    That sure is worth looking at
    Oh, boy, how sweet, those lips must be
    Gaze on it! Dog-gonit! now answer me
