VERSE 01: I feel so lonely, I feel so bad,/And you are the one who makes me sad/You never even smile on me,/That’s why I am just as blue as I can be./If you’d only love me I’d never care/If the day were dreary or skies were fair./In this world there’d be just two,/You for me and me for you. VERSE 02: I feel so happy when you are near,/But when you’re away the world grows drear/That’s why I want you by my side,/Promise me that you will be my blushing bride./We will go together some sunny day/To the little church, dear, just ‘cross the way./And then when the sweet bells chime/You’ll be my gal all the time. CHORUS: Come and be my own gal/Come to me, be my pal/We will wander hand in hand/Down the road to Happy Land./If you’ll be my girlie true,/I’ll tell you just what I will do/I’ll build for you a bungaloo/Just big enough for just us two,/A bungaloo for just us two/So be my gal. | |
