Lyrics
- Johnny Jones was never known to fool ’round the girls
Fool ’round the girls, fool ’round the girls
But one day there came his way a cute bunch o’ curls
And when she made him fall he hollered
Chorus
“Oh, you little sun-uv-er-gun
Look what you’ve done
Just look what you’ve done
You’ve gone and made me love you
Now every day in every way
I’ll think more of you
Oh, you little sun-uv-er-gun
I know that you’re just the one
With your ways like a baby
You’re driving me crazy
Oh, you little sun-uv-er-gun”
- Johnny Jones tho’ older grown is still dead in love
Still dead in love, still dead in love
Late and early just one girlie he’s thinking of
And to his little wife he’ll holler
Chorus
“Oh, you little sun-uv-er-gun
Look what you’ve done
Just look what you’ve done
You’ve gone and made me love you
Now every day in every way
I’ll think more of you
Oh, you little sun-uv-er-gun
I know that you’re just the one
With your wonderful cooking
You’ve made me good looking
Oh, you little sun-uv-er-gun”
