It happened
down at the Golden Gate,
A fool there was and her name was Kate.
She went and found herself a mate,
And she suffered ever after.
A millionaire she had her mate,
But she played herself a dirty trick,
And she chose that guy
who's played his trick.
She's a sap to love him so,
listen to her tale of woe.
I fetch his slip pers,
fill up the pipe he smoke.
I cook the kippers,
laugh at his oldest joke.
Yet here I anchor,
I might have had a banker.
Boy, what love has done to
me!
His nature's funny,
quarrelsome half the time
And as for money,
he hasn't got a dime
An d here's the joker,
I might have had a broker
Boy, what love has done to
me!
When a guy looks my way
Does he get emphatic?
Say he gets dramatic?
I just wanna fly away
But if I left him I'd be all at sea
I'm just a slave,
life is a funny thing
He's got the gravy,
I've got a wedding ring
And still I love him,
there's nobody above him
Boy, what love has done to me
Siegfried, oh my dear
The butcher, the baker,
all know he's a baker
I'm proud of what she says.
But if I left him, he'd be up a tree.
Where will it wind up?
I don't know where I land.
I make my mind up,
I ought to leave him flat.
But I have grown so,
I love the dirty so -and -so.
Boy, what love has done!
Boy, what love has done!
Boy, what love has done to me!
