Oh Miss Malinda 1908

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 31 Aug 2005

The evening bells were tolling,
you see two sweethearts strolling
they're in a quiet country town
and tales of love he's speaking,
a cozy nook they're seeking,
while moon shines brightly down.
The time is lightly flying,
the maiden is a sighing,
all nature seems in sympathy.
Then said the lad since I met you,
I dream the whole day through,
and wait 'till evening time comes 'round.

Oh Miss Malinda
tell me what's there to hinder
if I love you dear
and you love me dear
why can't we happy be.
Now then Miss Malinda
promise that 'neath your window
in all your splendour
you will surrender
when evening time comes 'round.

Oh Miss Malinda
tell me what's there to hinder
if I love you dear
and you love me dear
why can't we happy be.
Now then Miss Malinda
promise that 'neath your window
in all your splendour
you will surrender
when evening time comes 'round.

I wake up in the morning,
just as the day is dawning,
and my first thoughts are all of you.
At work I'm always lagging,
the time is always dragging,
I don't know what to do
and when the sun is setting,
I'm fuming and a fretting,
it seems as if t'would ne'er go down.
Because I know t'will soon be time
to meet you honey mine,
just soon as evening time comes 'round.

Oh Miss Malinda
tell me what's there to hinder
if I love you dear
and you love me dear
why can't we happy be.
Now then Miss Malinda
promise that 'neath your window
in all your splendour
you will surrender
when evening time comes 'round.

Oh Miss Malinda
tell me what's there to hinder
if I love you dear
and you love me dear
why can't we happy be.
Now then Miss Malinda
promise that 'neath your window
in all your splendour
you will surrender
when evening time comes 'round.
