She Certainly Looks Good To Me 1903

There is a yaller gal
she lives up yonder;
I have often tried to know her name;
She dresses like a queen,
she is a wonder;
She's enough to drive a man insane;
I saw her at the ball
the other evening
A dancin' with a coon
who's nearly white.
She danced with pretty grace,
a smile upon her face,
I never knew what love was
till that night.

'Deed she cert'nly looks good to me,
I'd like to be in her company,
Tried in vain to meet that dame.
I'd give anything
just to know her name.
I'd sing and dance the whole night long
Entertain her till she's gone,
She's done filled my heart with glee,
'cause she cert'nly looks good to me.

'Deed she cert'nly looks good to me,
I'd like to be in her company,
Tried in vain to meet that dame.
I'd give anything
just to know her name.
I'd sing and dance the whole night long
Entertain her till she's gone,
She's done filled my heart with glee,
'cause she cert'nly looks good to me.

If she could only know
how much I love her
I think she'd send a note
for me to call.
Her eyes they shine
like twinkling stars above her.
I've seen some beauts,
but this one beats them all.
She goes out riding in an automobile,
I saw her in the park this afternoon,
She passed me with a smile,
I watched her for a mile,
Then to myself
I sadly hummed this tune.

'Deed she cert'nly looks good to me,
I'd like to be in her company,
Tried in vain to meet that dame.
I'd give anything
just to know her name.
I'd sing and dance the whole night long
Entertain her till she's gone,
She's done filled my heart with glee,
'cause she cert'nly looks good to me.

'Deed she cert'nly looks good to me,
I'd like to be in her company,
Tried in vain to meet that dame.
I'd give anything
just to know her name.
I'd sing and dance the whole night long
Entertain her till she's gone,
She's done filled my heart with glee,
'cause she cert'nly looks good to me.
