Take Me Home With You 1914 'The Debutante'

Schooldays are so jolly when they're done,
schooldays terminate so gayly;
they're much nicer to look back upon
than to face them daily.
My home town was mighty good to see
at the holiday vacation,
and when relatives would visit me,
I'd greet them at the station.

Take me home with you!
Oh, don't you see
how much I miss you!
Take me home with you!
I want to be
where I can kiss you!
If there's room for one
we'll make it do
for room for two;
I've waited some
for you to come
and take me home with you.

Take me home with you!
Oh, don't you see
how much I miss you!
Take me home with you!
I want to be
where I can kiss you!
If there's room for one
we'll make it do
for room for two;
I've waited some
for you to come
and take me home with you.

Now that I'm to be a débutante
no doubt I shall have attention;
handsome fellows, debonair, gallant,
others we shan't mention.
And so when the right one comes my way,
I shall curtsey to His Highness,
to his overtures of love I'll say,
with all becoming shyness:

Take me home with you!
Oh, don't you see
how much I miss you!
Take me home with you!
I want to be
where I can kiss you!
If there's room for one
we'll make it do
for room for two;
I've waited some
for you to come
and take me home with you.

Take me home with you!
Oh, don't you see
how much I miss you!
Take me home with you!
I want to be
where I can kiss you!
If there's room for one
we'll make it do
for room for two;
I've waited some
for you to come
and take me home with you.
