Lyrics

[Verse 1]
How glad the many millions
Of Toms and Dicks and Williams
Would be to capture me
[Verse 2]
But you had such persistence
You wore down my resistance
I fell
And it was swell
[Verse 3]
You're my big and brave and handsome Romeo
How I won you? I will never, never know
[Verse 4]
It's not that you're attractive
But oh, my heart grew active
When you came into view
[Verse 5]
I've got a crush on you, sweetie pie
All the day and night time, hear me sigh
I never had the least notion
That I could fall with so much emotion
[Verse 6]
Could you coo?
Could you care
For a cunning cottage we could share?
The world will pardon my mush
'Cause I've got a crush, my baby, on you
[Verse 7]
Could you coo?
Could you care
For a cunning cottage we could share?
The world will pardon my mush
'Cause I've got a crush, my baby, on you
