There's
a man in town who's called the
Lady's
Lover now.
Keeps his pockets full of mirrors,
he's a pup for a while.
He went into a cab aret to see
Miss
Jenny dance
Jenny stepped right up and said,
you have no chance
There'll be no doin'
here before you say
No dan cin' till the break of day
I know there's lots
of girlies you may charm
An d long to hold them close
up right in your arms
But here's a lesson that
was taught to me
You cannot eat and sleep
on mirth and glee
Goodbye, and please don't call at all,
there'll be no previous admission involved.
Every time I step up on that ballroom floor,
there's a certain brother here that asks for more.
I see you've got to get your tone, because you're acting mighty bold,
sweet papa, a proper talking man.
Now bring your bucks and bucks aplenty, here's my hand,
I'll take from a dollar, from a dollar to a quarter, from a quarter to a frying pan.
I need you, mean I do, I've got no time to feel that cool,
there'll be no freebies at
Miss
Jenny's ball.
There'll be no su ing here before you say,
no dead friends until the break of day.
I know there's lots of
girlies you may charm
And long to hold them close
up right in your arms
But here's a lesson that
was taught to me
You cannot eat and sleep
on merch and flea
Goodbye, and please don't call at all
There'll be no babies at
Miss
Jenny's ball
