I've Got A Crush On You 1930 'Treasure Girl' & 'Strike Up The Band'

[He:] How glad the many millions
of Annabelles and Lillians would be
to capture me!
But you had such persistence,
you wore down my resistance:
I fell, and it was swell.
[She:] You're my big and brave
and handsome Romeo.
How I won you
I shall never never know.
[He:] It's not that you're attractive,
but oh my heart grew active
when you came into view.

[He:] I've got a crush on you, Sweetie Pie.
All the day and night time
hear me sigh.
I never had the least notion
that I could fall with so much emotion.
Could you coo, could you care
for a cunning cottage we could share?
The world will pardon my mush
'cause I've got a crush, my baby, on you.

[She:] I've got a crush on you, Sweetie Pie.
All the day and night time
hear me sigh.
This isn't just a flirtation:
we're proving that there's predestination.
I could coo, I could care
for that cunning cottage we could share.
Your mush I never shall shush,
'cause I've got a crush, my baby, on you.

[She:] How glad a million laddies
from millionaires to caddies would be
to capture me.
But you had such persistence,
you wore down my resistance:
I fell, and it was swell.
[She:] You're my big and brave
and handsome Romeo.
How I won you
I shall never never know.
[He:] It's not that you're attractive,
but oh my heart grew active
when you came into view.

[He:] I've got a crush on you, Sweetie Pie.
All the day and night time
hear me sigh.
I never had the least notion
that I could fall with so much emotion.
Could you coo, could you care
for a cunning cottage we could share?
The world will pardon my mush
'cause I've got a crush, my baby, on you.

[She:] I've got a crush on you, Sweetie Pie.
All the day and night time
hear me sigh.
This isn't just a flirtation:
we're proving that there's predestination.
I could coo, I could care
for that cunning cottage we could share.
Your mush I never shall shush,
'cause I've got a crush, my baby, on you.
