That's My Idea Of Paradise 1914

It doesn't take a lot to make me happy,
I'm easily satisfied,
I never cared for grand affairs
where ev'rybody puts on airs;
I wouldn't pay a lot to own a mansion,
It wouldn't be worth the price.
Come and hear of my idea of Paradise.

A little moonlight upon a June night,
a little bench beneath a tree,
one little squeeze of the hand,
a squeeze in return,
meaning I understand,
a sigh of: "Oh, sir
come over closer,"
a little kissing, oh, so nice,
and then a goodbye, dear,
that's my idea of Paradise.

A little moonlight upon a June night,
a little bench beneath a tree,
one little squeeze of the hand,
a squeeze in return,
meaning I understand,
a sigh of: "Oh, sir
come over closer,"
a little kissing, oh, so nice,
and then a goodbye, dear,
that's my idea of Paradise.

I never doubted anyone who told me,
That heaven is up above,
Still I would wager all I'm worth,
that there's a heaven here on earth;
The gates of Paradise are ever open,
just listen to my advice,
any lover can discover Paradise.

A little moonlight upon a June night,
a little bench beneath a tree,
one little squeeze of the hand,

a little kissing, oh, so nice,
and then a goodbye, dear,
that's my idea of Paradise.
