"Oh I feel so excited
I'm nervous as can be,"
said little Mary
to a friend she knew.
"Oh! you would be delighted
and feel the same as me
if someone introduced him to you.

It's the first time we've met
he's the kind you can't forget
he's tall and dark and handsome.
Tho' I don't know his name
or the place from whence he came
he's tall and dark and handsome.
He has the brand of kisses you'd adore
I never thought
they kissed that way before.
He's a type makes you feel
that he's too good to be real
he's tall and dark and handsome.

Tho' he wears a toupé
with a hat he looks O.K.
he's tall and dark and handsome.
Oh he's not fat or lean
he's the kind of in between
he's tall and dark and handsome.
He brought a cow into a bank one day
to have the cow's milk certified they say
Tho' he's mentally weak
I'm in love with his physique
he's tall and dark and handsome.

When first I let him kiss me
he said he liked my cheek
well if he likes my cheek
I like his sauce.
He says how much he'd miss me
He'll marry me next week
or soon as he can get his divorce.

Tho' his teeth aren't real
he's got lots of sex appeal
he's tall and dark and handsome.
When he's cold I can tell
when he's hot, he's hot as well
he's tall and dark and handsome.
I wouldn't say
that he's a flaming youth
was in the Civil War
to tell the truth.
But I don't mind his age
cause his bank account's the rage
he's tall and dark and handsome.

Got a lot of good points
but they're artificial joints
he's tall and dark and handsome.
Tho' he stutters a bit
he's got loads and loads of "it"
he's tall and dark and handsome.
I'm kinda puzzled
ev'ry time he speaks
you know it's hard
to understand these Greeks
with his foreign technique
he can love me till I'm weak
he's tall and dark and handsome.
