Lyrics
- Every night, calcium light
Shines on Georgianna sweet
Down in front, mashers hunt
For her smiles they’re such a treat
Southern style, she’s worthwhile
Is she there? well, I should smile
She’s the best, leads the rest
Hear them sing with zest
Chorus
Georgie, Oh! Georgianna
Your winning manner
Broke many hearts in old Louisiana
Sweet thing, I’d like to steal “yer”
You’re all right Georgianna dear
- Flowers gay come her way
Champagne suppers after dark
Sakes alive! See her drive
Her swell turn out thro’ the Park
But her dress, I confess
Can’t eclipse her loveliness
For her eyes, are the prize
They’re so awfully wise
Sung here by Vancha March:
