Cutie 1922 The Blue Kitten

James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 15 Jun 2004

Dearie, Dearie,
don't you recall
just when and how you met me?
Dearie, Dearie,
I see it all
The meeting quite upset me.
Serene I strolled along that day in Spring.
You strolled behind and kept a whispering.

Cutie, whose beauty are you?
Give me, oh, give me a clue.
Do you want me to stay
or must I run away?
Am I, oh, am I de 'trop?
Won't you, oh, won't you, say no?
Come on and give me
one little sign
Give me that look divine
that says, oh,
Cutie, my duty is clear
I've got to love you dear.

Cutie, whose beauty are you?
Give me, oh, give me a clue.
Do you want me to stay
or must I run away?
Am I, oh, am I de 'trop?
Won't you, oh, won't you, say no?
Come on and give me
one little sign
Give me that look divine
that says, oh,
Cutie, my duty is clear
I've got to love you dear.

Slowly, Slowly,
I turned and then
your tender eyes met mine, dear.
Smiling, sweetly,
so frank and fair
The moment seemed divine, dear.
And then together down the Avenue
we strolled along
and I replied to you.

Cutie, whose beauty are you?
Give me, oh, give me a clue.
Do you want me to stay
or must I run away?
Am I, oh, am I de 'trop?
Won't you, oh, won't you, say no?
Come on and give me
one little sign
Give me that look divine
that says, oh,
Cutie, my duty is clear
I've got to love you dear.

Cutie, whose beauty are you?
Give me, oh, give me a clue.
Do you want me to stay
or must I run away?
Am I, oh, am I de 'trop?
Won't you, oh, won't you, say no?
Come on and give me
one little sign
Give me that look divine
that says, oh,
Cutie, my duty is clear
I've got to love you dear.
