Ukelele Baby 1925

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 12 May 2002

He was such a happy loving Romeo,
Till his baby bought a Ukeleleo,
Now on the porch ev'ry evening,
She strums her life away,
Sadly you'll hear him say:

Ukelele Baby,
Of love I'm singing,
But you keep stringing,
You've just got me crazy,
The way you roll those dreamy eyes around,
When you strum that Hicky Dula,
I get warm,
but you get coo coo cooler,
Ukelele Baby,
Oh won't you lay your ukelele down?

Ukelele Baby,
Of love I'm singing,
But you keep stringing,
You've just got me crazy,
The way you roll those dreamy eyes around,
When you strum that Hicky Dula,
I get warm,
but you get coo coo cooler,
Ukelele Baby,
Oh won't you lay your ukelele down?

He loved music
but he loved his lovin' more,
He knew just what lovin' was invented for;
So when she'd start to play love songs,
He'd start to sigh to her,
He'd start to cry to her:

Ukelele Baby,
Of love I'm singing,
But you keep stringing,
You've just got me crazy,
The way you roll those dreamy eyes around,
When you strum that Hicky Dula,
I get warm,
but you get coo coo cooler,
Ukelele Baby,
Oh won't you lay your ukelele down?

Ukelele Baby,
Of love I'm singing,
But you keep stringing,
You've just got me crazy,
The way you roll those dreamy eyes around,
When you strum that Hicky Dula,
I get warm,
but you get coo coo cooler,
Ukelele Baby,
Oh won't you lay your ukelele down?
