Lyrics

  1. I have met you out on parties
    How you love your fun
    I go home at nine
    You stay out till one
    You may say that I’m old-fashioned
    I’ll admit it’s true
    How I wish that you were that way, too

Chorus
One o’clock baby maybe
You’ll settle down for me
One o’clock maybe
You’d like a family
Alone in a love nest
Now happy we’d be
One o’clock baby maybe
You’ll go to bed at nine o’clock for me

  1. How you love to make the rounds
    Of all the cabarets
    Staying till they close
    Turning nights to days
    Don’t you think a little cottage
    Where the roses grow
    Is a sweeter, nicer place to go
