Lyrics
1. Come on you Newport girls
Blue eyes and golden curls
Buds of swell society, society
Queens of fashion rich and rare
Diamond daughters everywhere
Yankee beauties, cutie cuties
With good looks to spare
Come on girls and dance the dreamy Newport glide
CHORUS
Come my love and dance the dreamy Newport glide
Cuddling side by side
Bubbling o’er with pride
While the moon is shining on the silvery tide
This dancing, prancing, most entrancing
Belmont stride
The barn-dance and the two-step have been cast aside
Swagger society must have variety
Pa’s got money, all kinds of money
All the world is milk and honey
Come my love and dance the dreamy Newport glide
2. Come on you Newport girls
Shake off these English Earls
Don’t forget the U. S. A., the U. S. A.
Yankee hearts should not be sold
Love is seldom bought with gold
Come on, dearie, lets get cheery
Ma will never scold
Mister leader kindly let the trombone slide
