I'd Like To Meet Your Father 1907 Kern

[He:] It doesn't matter how we met,
we met one summer day,
it may be I first looked at you
or just the other way.
But that's an old, old story now,
and you're my little pet,
but how about your relatives,
I haven't met them yet.

I'd like to meet your father
to have an interview,
I'd like to meet your mother
your sister, your brother.
You must agree with me, dear,
it's the proper thing to do.
I'd like to see
if I'd like your family
like I like you.

I'd like to meet your father
to have an interview,
I'd like to meet your mother
your sister, your brother.
You must agree with me, dear,
it's the proper thing to do.
I'd like to see
if I'd like your family
like I like you.

[She:] It's hard to say where father is,
I hope he's not in jail.
And mother's buying P.D.Qs
at Mary's bargain sale.
They marcel wave, dear sister's hair,
each day from ten to three,
I hope it's not too shady dear,
beneath my fam'ly tree.

I'd like to meet your father
to have an interview,
I'd like to meet your mother
your sister, your brother.
You must agree with me, dear,
it's the proper thing to do.
I'd like to see
if I'd like your family
like I like you.

I'd like to meet your father
to have an interview,
I'd like to meet your mother
your sister, your brother.
You must agree with me, dear,
it's the proper thing to do.
I'd like to see
if I'd like your family
like I like you.
