Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
1. Now listen Bill, and please keep still
Until I’ve had my say
I’m mighty strong and long for you
I’ll marry you some day
Our honeymoon must be of class
A trip beyond compare
So I’ve decided I will let you take me to the Fair
Chorus:
In nineteen fifteen
Frisco is the only time and place
To marry anywhere but there
Would be a big disgrace
So put your pay checks all aside
And I’ll become your bride
In nineteen fifteen in the town of Frisco
2. No use to argue with me Bill
For I’ve made up my mind
Sweet wedding bells in Frisco
Or you’ll sure be left behind
Just think of getting married there
Right at the Golden Gate
I’m going Bill, I’m going
If I have to go by freight
