Lyrics
- Dearie, Dearie, don’t you recall
Just when and how you met me?
Dearie, Dearie, I see it all
The meeting quite upset me
Serene I strolled along that day in spring
You strolled behind and kept a-whispering
Chorus
Cutie, whose beauty are you?
Give me, oh, give me a clue
Do you want me to stay
Or must I run away?
Am I, oh, am I de ‘trop?
Won’t you, oh, won’t you say no?
Come on and give me one little sign
Give me that look divine
That says, oh Cutie my dutie is clear
I’ve got to love you dear
- Slowly, slowly, I turned and then
Your tender eyes met mine dear
Smiling, sweetly, so frank and fair
The moment seemed divine dear
And then together down the Avenue
We strolled along and I replied to you
