Follow Me Around 1912

Tell me, dear, would you like
to see the town a bit?
Would you like to go around?
If you'd care to be
where there's a whole lot doin'
Then you better come down;
let's go down to where ev'rybody's doin' it,
where they never wear a frown,
you will have a ton full of fun, little hon'
if you follow me around.

Follow me around, all around,
all around,
chasing, racing all around the town,
don't you make a sound,
make a sound, make a sound,
and you'll be glad before the night is over.
That you followed me around,
all around, all around,
we will cover lots of ground,
I've got the key to most ev'ry cabaret
where there's an hour of joy
we can grab away,
we'll discover places that Columbus never found,
dearie, if you follow me around.

Follow me around, all around,
all around,
chasing, racing all around the town,
don't you make a sound,
make a sound, make a sound,
and you'll be glad before the night is over.
That you followed me around,
all around, all around,
we will cover lots of ground,
I've got the key to most ev'ry cabaret
where there's an hour of joy
we can grab away,
we'll discover places that Columbus never found,
dearie, if you follow me around.

Let's go where ev'rybody
makes a night of it,
where they've thrown away the key,
where a stein full of wine
starts your head a buzzin'
like a troublesome bee;
rest assured, ever since I got the sight of it,
there I always want to be,
let me tell you, pet,
that I've yet to regret,
so you better follow me.

Follow me around, all around,
all around,
chasing, racing all around the town,
don't you make a sound,
make a sound, make a sound,
and you'll be glad before the night is over.
That you followed me around,
all around, all around,
we will cover lots of ground,
I've got the key to most ev'ry cabaret
where there's an hour of joy
we can grab away,
we'll discover places that Columbus never found,
dearie, if you follow me around.

Follow me around, all around,
all around,
chasing, racing all around the town,
don't you make a sound,
make a sound, make a sound,
and you'll be glad before the night is over.
That you followed me around,
all around, all around,
we will cover lots of ground,
I've got the key to most ev'ry cabaret
where there's an hour of joy
we can grab away,
we'll discover places that Columbus never found,
dearie, if you follow me around.
