My Own Sweet Eskimo 1909

Way up in icy Greenland
there's a pretty little Eskimo
and to be like other girlies
she has a beau that loves her so.
Ev'ry day, feeling gay,
in a dog team sleigh
o'er the ice they love to glide,
then at night 'neath the bright rays
of Northern Light,
he will sing,
as she sits by his side:

Oh! You dearest,
sweetest little Eskimo
let us marry soon.
From purest ice
I will build a home so nice,
that you and I can spoon,
always spoon.
We'll have a home
we can call our own
and the windy winds can blow,
then my love for you
will be warm and true
My own sweet Eskimo.

Oh! You dearest,
sweetest little Eskimo
let us marry soon.
From purest ice
I will build a home so nice,
that you and I can spoon,
always spoon.
We'll have a home
we can call our own
and the windy winds can blow,
then my love for you
will be warm and true
My own sweet Eskimo.

There came a time while sleighing
when she cuddled up a little more,
as he told the oft told story
he saw her smile as ne'er before.
Like a dart then his heart
took a sudden start:
"Let us marry now," said he
you can guess my distress
if you don't say "Yes."
and she did,
when he sang merrily.

Oh! You dearest,
sweetest little Eskimo
let us marry soon.
From purest ice
I will build a home so nice,
that you and I can spoon,
always spoon.
We'll have a home
we can call our own
and the windy winds can blow,
then my love for you
will be warm and true
My own sweet Eskimo.

Oh! You dearest,
sweetest little Eskimo
let us marry soon.
From purest ice
I will build a home so nice,
that you and I can spoon,
always spoon.
We'll have a home
we can call our own
and the windy winds can blow,
then my love for you
will be warm and true
My own sweet Eskimo.
