Lyrics

  1. Dorothy Dilks sells satins and silks
    Second floor, second aisle to the right
    With one eye on the stock
    And one eye on the clock
    From “Good morning, boss,” till “Good night”
    Do you blame her a bit
    When the fellow who’s “It”
    Calls around at the close of the day
    And says smiling bright
    “What’s on for tonight?”
    If she smiling back answers, “Say”

Chorus
Let’s go where we can have some fun
You have some, I’ll have some
Let’s go where we can make things hum
Tomorrow’s another day, Yea!
Let’s have a “strike up a tuney” time
Loony time, spoony time
Let’s go where, where, where, where
Where we can have some fun

  1. Dennie Devere, Assistant Cashier
    Putting down, adding up, was a champ
    On a stool he would pose
    With his knees near his nose
    Till his leg caught the bookkeeper’s cramp
    But no Doctor for him
    For that cramp in his limb
    For his leg would be pulled in good shape
    He knew, believe me, when Dorothy D.
    From her face let these words escape
