I've Gone And Lost My Little Yo-Yo 1932

I'm sad and disappointed
I'm as sore as I can be,
when the missis finds what's happened
she'll be more upset than me.
There'll be no peace for me at home,
It's sure to cause a row,
I didn't want to tell her,
but I'll have to tell her now.

I had it when I left the house
at half past ten,
I had it with me quite all right.
I showed it to a p'liceman
at the corner, then
he laughed with all his might.
The wife will want
to have a game when I get home,
but I can't find it. Oh!
No! It's my unlucky day
whatever will she say,
when she finds I've gone
and lost my little YoYo!

I had it when I left the house
at half past ten,
I had it with me quite all right.
I showed it to a p'liceman

he laughed with all his might.
The wife will want
to have a game when I get home,
but I can't find it. Oh!
No! It's my unlucky day
whatever will she say,
when she finds I've gone
and lost my little YoYo!

I got so good at YoYo
I could trail it on the ground,
I could "Walk the Dog"
and "Slip the Loop"
and swing it round and round.
I'm simply lost without it,
I must get another soon,
because I'm in a competition
Sat'day afternoon.

I had it when I left the house
at half past ten,
I had it with me quite all right.
I showed it to a p'liceman
at the corner, then
he laughed with all his might.

to have a game when I get home,
but I can't find it. Oh!
