The Wedding Of The Slum Town Babies - 1932

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK 28 Jul 2001

If you're blue and feel a bit low,
Weary of the world you're treading,
Come with me to Paradise Row,
See the happy slum kids' wedding,
Little baby Joe, they say
Marries baby Lou today.

Baby Joe's in an old top hat,
[Fancy getting married in a hat like that!]
But bless his heart
He looks real smart
At the wedding
Of the slum town babies!
Baby Lou's looking sweet and pale,
Wearing Mother's curtain
For a bridal veil,
But all the street say
"Ain't she sweet!"
At the wedding of the slum town babies.
Georgie Brown in an old night gown
Reads the wedding service,
"Now you're married
I wish you joy,
First a girl and then a boy."
Then off they ride
In a soap box car,
Happier that any of your grownups are,
And Fairyland is not so far
From the wedding
Of the slum town babies

Baby Joe's in an old top hat,
[Fancy getting married in a hat like that!]
But bless his heart
He looks real smart
At the wedding
Of the slum town babies!
Baby Lou's looking sweet and pale,
Wearing Mother's curtain
For a bridal veil,
But all the street say
"Ain't she sweet!"
At the wedding of the slum town babies.

In a soap box car,
Happier that any of your grownups are,
And Fairyland is not so far
From the wedding
Of the slum town babies.

Tho' young Jim,
The tiniest mite,
Doesn't know the part he's playing,
While his sister cuddles him tight,
You can hear her proudly saying,
"You're their little baby son
Waiting to be born; what fun!"
