Lyrics
1. Miss Liza loved a bashful coon
Who’d keep a gazin’ at the moon
Or talkin’ ’bout the shinin’ stars above
One night she up and says to him
“I’m gettin’ tired, now look here, Jim
It’s time you tried your hand at makin’ love”
Then poor Jim look’d away
And Liza heard him say
Chorus
“Way down in my heart
I’ve got a feelin’ for you
And if we should part
I’d be a kneelin’ to you
If you’d say the word
I’d go a stealin’ for you
‘Cause I’ve got a sneaky feelin’ for you”
2. When Liza heard Jim talk like this
She gave him such a whackin’ kiss
He blushed so hard it almost singed his hair
She said, “Don’t let that worry you
I’ll do the lovin’ for us two
And Jim, you’re certn’ly goin’ to get your share”
Jim said, “I guess I’ll stay”
And Liza heard him say
