Lyrics

  1. Every night, calcium light
    Shines on Georgianna sweet
    Down in front, mashers hunt
    For her smiles they’re such a treat
    Southern style, she’s worthwhile
    Is she there? well, I should smile
    She’s the best, leads the rest
    Hear them sing with zest

Chorus
Georgie, Oh! Georgianna
Your winning manner
Broke many hearts in old Louisiana
Sweet thing, I’d like to steal “yer”
You’re all right Georgianna dear

  1. Flowers gay come her way
    Champagne suppers after dark
    Sakes alive! See her drive
    Her swell turn out thro’ the Park
    But her dress, I confess
    Can’t eclipse her loveliness
    For her eyes, are the prize
    They’re so awfully wise
