I Got It You'll Get It 1922

I walked into a lunatic asylum yesterday
to see a friend I knew
and he was feeling blue;
He said: "I heard you're going with a girl
that I once knew,
and I just told the keeper here,
to save a room for you.
At breaking hearts
that girl of yours
she really is a bear,
Keep away, keep away,
or she'll give you the air."

'Cause I got it; you'll get it,
just the same as me,
Oh! she had me up a tree
I was nutty as can be
Oh! I got it; you'll get it
you just wait and see.
You leave her and when you get back
she calls you, Bill your name is Jack
Oh! I got it; you'll get it
when she smiles at you
Oh! she'll have you jumpin' thru'
'cause she had me jumpin' too.
I don't know what it is she did,
I love my wife,
but oh! that kid,
Jim got it,
Jack got it,
Joe got it,
Bill got it,
I got it;
You'll get it
just the same as me.

'Cause I got it; you'll get it,
she's good company,
she's as good as good can be
good for you but not for me
Oh! I got it; you'll get it
you just wait and see.
She borrowed car fare home from me
she lived way down in Tennessee
Oh! I got it; you'll get it
I know you'll agree
She's as cute as she can be
but she's too darn cute for me.
She's a saving girl they say
Saves your letter
makes you pay
Sid knows it,
Sam knows it,
Sol knows it,
Mike knows it,
I got it;
You'll get it
just the same as me.

He said: "That girl of yours
is just as fickle as can be
and if you are in doubt
just wait and you'll find out
but I just want to tell you
that you've got my sympathy
for I know that she'll treat you
just the way she treated me.
I'm sure you'll come around and say
that I was right some day
Keep away, keep away,
remember what I say."

'Cause I got it; you'll get it,
just the same as me,
Oh! she had me up a tree
I was nutty as can be
Oh! I got it; you'll get it
you just wait and see.
You leave her and when you get back
she calls you, Bill your name is Jack
Oh! I got it; you'll get it
when she smiles at you
Oh! she'll have you jumpin' thru'
'cause she had me jumpin' too.
I don't know what it is she did,
I love my wife,
but oh! that kid,
Jim got it,
Jack got it,
Joe got it,
Bill got it,
I got it;
You'll get it
just the same as me.

'Cause I got it; you'll get it,
she's good company,
she's as good as good can be
good for you but not for me
Oh! I got it; you'll get it
you just wait and see.
She borrowed car fare home from me
she lived way down in Tennessee
Oh! I got it; you'll get it
I know you'll agree
She's as cute as she can be
but she's too darn cute for me.
She's a saving girl they say
Saves your letter

Sid knows it,
Sam knows it,
Sol knows it,
Mike knows it,
I got it;
You'll get it
just the same as me.
