Oh isn't this a lovely band, and what a thrill to have them play with me! And now, a little duet for you!There's a fellow following meI'm the fellow following you
I will follow you 'till the day is throughI wonder what you would do
If I stopped and said "How do you do?" like other girls doI think I'd die with delight
I want to call and love you tonightIn the parlor?NoIn a hammock?NoThen for goodness' sake, where will we go?Out on the old front porch
Well, hold me, Charlie!On the old front porchNow, stop!I was only trying to steal a little kissWell, kisses do invite me, but please don't hug so tightlyOn the old front porch
Now, don't get angry, on the old front porchPlease, stop!Everything is lovely when you're cuddled near me, dearLook out, here come my father, and he'll surely scold, I fearWill that young man go home tonight or have his breakfast here?On the old front porch!Just call back some other night
I'll see that Pa's out of sightWait until it's dark
Then you can be
Cuddled right on my knee
So that we can do lots of nice things
And no one can seeAnd if your dreadful old pa
Should come out and give me a jarYou must understand
If it's dark, that's grand!
Cause the kick he aims
Will never land!Out on the old front porchWell, hold me, Charlie!(deeper voice)
On the old front porchNow, stop!I was only trying to steal a little kissWell, kisses do invite me, but gee, you tried to bite me!On the old front porch
Now, don't get angry, on the old front porchPlease, stop!Everything is lovely when you're cuddled near me, dearLook out, here come my father, and he'll surely scold, I fearWill that young man go home tonight or have his breakfast here?On the old front porch!
