Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
- Sweet little girlie and her beau
Sittin’ in the parlor with the lights down low
Things are progressing mighty slow
Too much delayin’ fellow keeps sayin’
Chorus
Come on over here from way over there
There’s nobody near
And room in the chair for two
(Hurry Up”)
That’s a good girl
You never will miss a sweet little smack
So, give me a kiss and I’ll give it back to you
(Kiss) “Thanks”
That’s a good girl
I’ve got a present here to show you
Before I start to Romeo you
It’s only a ring, I bought it today
It don’t mean a thing unless you say “I do”
(A Little Louder Please)
That’s a good girl
- Sweet little girlie tells her beau
That she won’t say “yes”
But then she won’t say “no”
Things are progressing mighty slow
Moments are flyin’, fellow is sighin’
