Lyrics
- I’m all smiles, great big smiles
Just got an answer to a letter I wrote
She said “Yes”, “I’ll be dressed”
And all I did was drop her this little note, and told her
Chorus
I’ll stand beneath your window tonight
And whistle (whistle) for you
Don’t hesitate to turn off the light and whistle (whistle)
So that I’ll know you’re set to go
And when Daddy asks you why you’re all dressed
Just whistle (whistle), and I’ll do the rest
Don’t let any thing interfere
I’ve a preacher waiting right here, remember
I’ll stand beneath your window tonight
And whistle (whistle) for you
- She’s some gal, some real pal
We started right off to the preacher on time
Tied the knot, on the spot
And all because I dropped her this little line, and told her
