Stop Eating That Stuff 1920

Mary was pretty as a picture
Tommy was homely as a cur;
Mary was eating some candy
while Tommy said to her:

Stop eating that stuff,
you're sweet enough,
that's what the fellows say.
don't you see, don't you see,
won't you marry me?
I love you by the way,
I'd be true sweetheart to you,
tho' the way may be weary
and the path may be rough,
but Mary, Mary,
don't make my heart ache;
stop, stop, stop, stop,
stop eating,
stop eating that stuff.

Stop eating that stuff,
you're sweet enough,
that's what the fellows say.
don't you see, don't you see,
won't you marry me?
I love you by the way,
I'd be true sweetheart to you,
tho' the way may be weary
and the path may be rough,
but Mary, Mary,
don't make my heart ache;
stop, stop, stop, stop,
stop eating,
stop eating that stuff.

Tommy his answer was not to know
Mary smiled, her dimples to show,
her father appeared on the scene just then,
and Tom went crying down the glen.

Stop eating that stuff,
you're sweet enough,
that's what the fellows say.
don't you see, don't you see,
won't you marry me?
I love you by the way,
I'd be true sweetheart to you,
tho' the way may be weary
and the path may be rough,
but Mary, Mary,
don't make my heart ache;
stop, stop, stop, stop,
stop eating,
stop eating that stuff.

Stop eating that stuff,
you're sweet enough,
that's what the fellows say.
don't you see, don't you see,
won't you marry me?
I love you by the way,
I'd be true sweetheart to you,
tho' the way may be weary
and the path may be rough,
but Mary, Mary,
don't make my heart ache;
stop, stop, stop, stop,
stop eating,
stop eating that stuff.
