The Romping Redheads 1916 'The Century Girl'

Night lies soft and the world's at rest
children sleep in their cozy nest:
Tho' in dreams of their childish joys
they still play with their funny toys.
Buster Brown, Tom and Jerry,
Dan and Dick
Teddy Bear and the monkey on a stick
we have to work all thru the day.
Ah, but the night is our time for play.

Up then! This is our play time
we know, soon, it will be day time.
So romp and ramble around about,
how we love to gambol
when the lights are out
each one's sweetheart is with him,
so come now moving in rhythm,
we'll dance all night
till the broad day light.
We're the Romping Redhead Kids.

Up then! This is our play time
we know, soon, it will be day time.
So romp and ramble around about,
how we love to gambol
when the lights are out
each one's sweetheart is with him,
so come now moving in rhythm,
we'll dance all night
till the broad day light.
We're the Romping Redhead Kids.
