There is a maid who's very simple
Pride of the country side is she,
Innocent eyes and little dimple,
with a sweet personality.

Have you heard of sweet Julietta,
a beautiful, shy little miss.
Our Romeo tried hard to get her,
he said: "Sweet miss, give me a kiss,"
"Oh no, sir," she sighed, as she giggled,
"Altho' you are handsome and gay,
My kisses are only for rich men,
so I bid you good day.

Now one day our sweet Julietta
she went out to tea with a Duke
He said he would never forget her
then she gave him a quiet rebuke,
"Oh sir," she said, "What of the Duchess?"
As shyly she lowered her head,
She wouldn't allow him to kiss her,
But she kissed him instead.

Julietta, Julietta,
she's lovely
just think of the pleasures she's missed,
Julietta, Julietta,
she's lovely,
the girl who has never been kissed.

Then once on a cruise, Julietta,
she met such a handsome young sport,
who said he would love nothing better
than show her round at every port,
"Oh, thank you," said sweet Julietta,
"I've heard of your kind, sir, from Ma,
My father was once in the Navy,
I know what sailors are."

The Vicar once took Julietta,
the vicarage garden to see,
he said that the roses were better
just behind the chestnut tree,
He cried: "Let me show you, my dear one,
My new open air swimming bath,
will you lead the way?" so she led him
right up the garden path.

Julietta, Julietta,
she's lovely
just think of the pleasures she's missed,
Julietta, Julietta,
she's lovely,
the girl who has never been kissed.
