Ma! (He's Making Eyes at Me)
My girl Lilly makes me feel silly and shy
And in my parlor too, she tries to bill and coo
And most every night Lilly calls, she will try
To mash it up with me, and then I cry
Ma! She's making eyes at me
Ma! She's awful nice to me
Ma! She's almost breaking my heart
I'm beside her, mercy!
Let her conscious guide her
Ma! She wants to marry me
Be my honeybee
If I love her, I may lose her
Still it's frugal to refuse her
Ma! She's kissing me
Ma! She's climbing on my knee
Ma! She's telling jokes to me
Ma! She's almost breaking my heart
Hurry, will ya?
Ma! She's getting too familiar
Ma! Make her stop teasing me
She won't let me be
Oh what brand new words she's speakin'
Hurry ma, before I weaken
Ma! She's kissing me
Lilly was so good, ev'ry body could tell
You'd never see her roam, never
She'd always stay at home
All the neighbors knew little Lilly too well, they did
For when the boys would call, They'd hear her yell
Ma! He's starting in again
Oh, ma! He's driving me insane
Ma! He's makin' motions at me
I'll surrender
He's so strong and I'm so tender
Ma! He's playing games with me
He's a busy bee
Marry him, oh how I knew it
He's not Gentile, but he's Jewish
Ma! He's kissing me
Oh, ma! He's doing funny tricks
Oh, ma! I'm in an awful fix
Ma! He wants to sit on my knee
Ma! He's no stranger
Still I feel that I'm in danger
Ma! He's holding both my hands
He's foolish as can be
He says I'm his hidden treasure
Does he mean it just for pleasure?
Ma! He's kissing me
And in my parlor too, she tries to bill and coo
And most every night Lilly calls, she will try
To mash it up with me, and then I cry
Ma! She's making eyes at me
Ma! She's awful nice to me
Ma! She's almost breaking my heart
I'm beside her, mercy!
Let her conscious guide her
Ma! She wants to marry me
Be my honeybee
If I love her, I may lose her
Still it's frugal to refuse her
Ma! She's kissing me
Ma! She's climbing on my knee
Ma! She's telling jokes to me
Ma! She's almost breaking my heart
Hurry, will ya?
Ma! She's getting too familiar
Ma! Make her stop teasing me
She won't let me be
Oh what brand new words she's speakin'
Hurry ma, before I weaken
Ma! She's kissing me
Lilly was so good, ev'ry body could tell
You'd never see her roam, never
She'd always stay at home
All the neighbors knew little Lilly too well, they did
For when the boys would call, They'd hear her yell
Ma! He's starting in again
Oh, ma! He's driving me insane
Ma! He's makin' motions at me

He's so strong and I'm so tender
Ma! He's playing games with me

Marry him, oh how I knew it
He's not Gentile, but he's Jewish
Ma! He's kissing me
Oh, ma! He's doing funny tricks
Oh, ma! I'm in an awful fix
Ma! He wants to sit on my knee
Ma! He's no stranger
Still I feel that I'm in danger
Ma! He's holding both my hands
He's foolish as can be
He says I'm his hidden treasure
Does he mean it just for pleasure?
Ma! He's kissing me
