Dear Mayme I Love You 1910

Dear Mayme:
I want to explain,
Why I sat down
to write you this note,
Gee, Mayme, I do feel ashamed,
It's the first letter
I ever wrote,
There's some little something
'way down in my heart,
I haven't the nerve to say;
But sooner or later
I must make a start,
So it might as well be today.

I love you, I love you,
I love you, Mayme,
I'd like to be there
with a real pretty spiel,
But three simple words
can explain how I feel,
I love you, I want you,
I need you, is all that I know;
My love to your ma,
kind regards to your pa,
and kisses to you from Joe.

P. S.
Dear Mayme can you guess
Who I saw, well it's old Parson Brown,
Gee whiz,
He was chock full of biz'
And he wants you and me to come 'round,
Now I've bought a bargain,
a nice wedding ring
worth twenty, I bought it for ten;
Jim Jones wants to buy it
for fifteen next spring,
Do you want me to sell it again?

I love you, I love you,
I love you, Mayme,
I'd like to be there
with a real pretty spiel,
But three simple words
can explain how I feel,
I love you, I want you,
I need you, is all that I know;
My love to your ma,
kind regards to your pa,
and kisses to you from Joe.
