Old Boy Neutral 1916 Kern

Choosing girlies is somewhat amusing
some what confusing
some choose light ones
and think they're the right ones
"Stay home at night ones"
Some choose dark ones
those "spoon in the park" ones
"out for a lark" ones
Blonde or brunette
they all look alike to me
for I maintain a strict neutrality.

I love 'em all
I love 'em all
The short and tall
the large and small,
it always makes me feel so gay and young
to be among the girls!
I love to dine with Maud or Mabel
where we can not be seen.
With forty courses on the table
and lots of kissing in between,
I love 'em all.
I love 'em all
and when upon each girl I call
they cry: "Oh joy!
It's old boy neutral!"
That's me I love 'em all.

I love 'em all
I love 'em all
The short and tall
the large and small,
I love to feed the darling little pets
on cigarettes and tea.
A rustling skirt just plays
the "Dickens" with sentimental me,
And if the skirt should be a "Chickens"
I'm on the job immediately
I love 'em all
I love 'em all.
A dozen times each day I fall,
if any man was ever neutral,
That's me, I love 'em all.

When girl choosing
I can't understand
I can't understand why
some choose neat ones
we all love the sweet ones
cute and petit ones
some choose fat ones
those "I own the flat" ones,
"Take of your hat" ones
young or ancient
they all get a smile from me.
for I'm as neutral as a man can be.

I love 'em all
I love 'em all
The short and tall
the large and small,
it always makes me feel so gay and young
to be among the girls!
I love to dine with Maud or Mabel
where we can not be seen.
With forty courses on the table
and lots of kissing in between,
I love 'em all.
I love 'em all
and when upon each girl I call
they cry: "Oh joy!
It's old boy neutral!"
That's me I love 'em all.

I love 'em all
I love 'em all
The short and tall
the large and small,
I love to feed the darling little pets
on cigarettes and tea.
A rustling skirt just plays
the "Dickens" with sentimental me,
And if the skirt should be a "Chickens"
I'm on the job immediately
I love 'em all
I love 'em all.
A dozen times each day I fall,
if any man was ever neutral,
That's me, I love 'em all.
