Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:


Lyrics

We took a walk, we had a talk
And let me tell you very confidentially
The little walk, the little talk
Has made me just as glad
As glad as I can be
I simply wanted to know
Who she was loving, and so
We took a walk and had a talk
And I discovered pretty soon
That it was me

Chorus
Me, she gave her attention
Not to him, not to her
Not to them, not to those
But to me
Her family, they held a convention
Not for him, not for her
Not for them, not for those
But for me
I’m delighted, yes sir!
And I have to laugh
Standing on my dresser
Is a photograph
Which proves that she
Gives all her attention
Not to him, not to her
Not to them, not to those
But to me
