Everybody Loves My Girl 1914

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 22 Dec 2003

One girl has set the whole town crazy,
one girl, and she's a little daisy,
One girl with golden hair
and a great big baby stare.
One girl has got the fellows lonesome
for her company,
she's got a sweet little smile,
a neat little style,
and she belongs to me.

And ev'ry one in town loves my girl,
loves my girl, she's my girl,
but ev'ry day I hear some fellow say:
"Our eyes have met, our lips not yet,
but, oh! you kid, I'll get you yet!"
And that's the reason why I worry,
my poor brain's in a whirl,
for if ever I should lose her,
show me one man who'd refuse her,
for ev'rybody loves my girl.
"God bless her!"

Ev'ry one in town loves my girl,
loves my girl, she's my girl,
but ev'ry day I hear some fellow say:
"Our eyes have met, our lips not yet,
but, oh! you kid, I'll get you yet!"
And that's the reason why I worry,
my poor brain's in a whirl,
all the boys said, after marriage,
they would push our baby carriage
for ev'rybody loves my girl.

One boy is feeling kind of worried,
One boy, whose brain is all aflurried,
One boy can't sleep at night
and has lost his appetite.
One girl has got a fellow guessing,
acting mighty queer,
for he's afraid that some day
they will steal her away,
and that boy's standing here.

And ev'ry one in town loves my girl,
loves my girl, she's my girl,
but ev'ry day I hear some fellow say:
"Our eyes have met, our lips not yet,
but, oh! you kid, I'll get you yet!"
And that's the reason why I worry,
my poor brain's in a whirl,
for if ever I should lose her,
show me one man who'd refuse her,
for ev'rybody loves my girl.
"God bless her!"

Ev'ry one in town loves my girl,
loves my girl, she's my girl,
but ev'ry day I hear some fellow say:
"Our eyes have met, our lips not yet,
but, oh! you kid, I'll get you yet!"
And that's the reason why I worry,
my poor brain's in a whirl,
all the boys said, after marriage,
they would push our baby carriage
for ev'rybody loves my girl.
