Abraham, tell me the trufe,
who was it roasted me,
I want to know,
Abraham, show me the proof,
Why don't you answer me,
don't treat me so,
I just loves the ground you walk upon,
I almost worships you, yes I do,
It will break my heart
if you believe
that all those things are true.
oo, oo, oo,
Abraham, look in my eyes,
Honest to goodness
I wish I was dead,
Abraham, who told dem lies,
Take back those words that you said.

Oh, poor Abraham,
I am so lonely,
I love you only,
Oh, poor Abraham,
I'm almost crazy about you I am,
When you're 'way from me,
I dreams about you,
Can't do without you, Abie,
my Abie,
won't you call me your baby,
and I'll always call you Abraham

Oh, poor Abraham,
I am so lonely,
I love you only,
Oh, poor Abraham,
I'm almost crazy about you I am,
When you're 'way from me,
I dreams about you,
Can't do without you, Abie,
my Abie,
won't you call me your baby,
and I'll always call you Abraham

Abraham, harken to me,
I wants to tell you now
don't throw me down,
Abraham, I plainly see,
You love some other gal
right here in town.
If I catch you
out with her some night,
I'll surely scratch her face,
that's my place,
Then next day
there'll be some startling news
a breach of promise case,
fine disgrace,
Abraham, ain't I a fool,
I didn't mean it babe
don't go away,
Abraham, don't be so cruel,
here on my knees now I say.

Oh, poor Abraham,
I am so lonely,
I love you only,
Oh, poor Abraham,
I'm almost crazy about you I am,
When you're 'way from me,
I dreams about you,
Can't do without you, Abie,
my Abie,
won't you call me your baby,
and I'll always call you Abraham

Oh, poor Abraham,
I am so lonely,
I love you only,
Oh, poor Abraham,
I'm almost crazy about you I am,
When you're 'way from me,
I dreams about you,
Can't do without you, Abie,
my Abie,
won't you call me your baby,
and I'll always call you Abraham.
