Ma

Ma, he's makin' eyes at me

Ma, he's awful nice to me

Ma, he's almost breaking my heart

I'm beside him, mercy, let his conscience guide him

Ma, he wants to marry me

Be my honey bee

Every minute he gets bolder

Now he's leaning on my shoulder

Ma, he's kissing me

Little Lilly was oh so silly and shy

And all the fellows knew she wouldn't bill and coo

Every single night some smart fellow would try

To cuddle up to her, but she would cry

Ma, he's makin' eyes at me

Ma, he's awful nice to me

Ma, he's almost breaking my heart

He's good lookin', wait until he tastes my cookin'

Ma, he wants to marry me

Be my honey bee

Hurry dear and send for papa

If not pa, then get a copper

Ma, he's kissing me

Ma

Ma

Ma, he's almost breaking my heart

If you're peekin', you can see I'm gonna weaken

Ma, he wants to marry me

Be my pride and joy

Just found out his name is Daniel

Cuter than a cocker spaniel

Ma, I love that boy
