The sheet music:
Lyrics
- Hear the noise, hear the boys
All trying to cheer her
I’ll bet they’re around Miss Annabelle Lee
No they’re not, who is that
Sweet baby that’s near her
She’s got me guessin’ who can it be
‘Taint Magnolia, Mary Ann
Can’t be Lila or Diane
She’s better lookin’ take it from me
Chorus:
Look at that baby there
Blue eyes and golden hair
Lovely gorgeous, that’s Glorianna
Ain’t she the image of
Someone you’d care to love
Oh oh! So so! That’s Glorianna
Her lips are so inviting
Her arms are so exciting
Her looks are dynamiting
Keep away from that explosion
She stands out like a gem
They made just one of them
Lovely gorgeous Glorianna
- Fellers crave, fellers rave
Whenever they meet her
You’d think she’s the only girl in this town
How they fall, see them all
With presents they greet her
Each day you’ll see them hangin’ around
Morning glories at her door
Diamond bracelets and what more
She just keeps right on turning ’em down
Chorus:
Look at her winning smile
She is the latest style
Lovely gorgeous, that’s Glorianna
Look at her pearly teeth
Then size her down beneath
Oh me! Oh gee! That’s Glorianna
Tell me now ain’t she rippin’
Tell me ain’t she a pippin’
Tell me ain’t your heart slippin’
Papa buy me one of those-zes
Who’d I let hang around
Hold me till I “faw down”
Lovely, gorgeous Glorianna
