Which Hazel? 1921

I love two girls named Hazel,
Yes Hazel is the name.
One is mild, the other wild,
but they get there just the same.
They both love me, you see,
But one thing puzzles me.

Which Hazel, which Hazel?
which Hazel shall it be?
Which Hazel, which Hazel?
Is all that worries me.
I love them, I love them,
I'm going off my nut,
For they've got something I declare,
No other girls have got.
Which Hazel, which Hazel,
my brain is in a whirl,
Which Hazel shall turn out
to be the girl? Oh!
Take the key and lock me up,
I'm as crazy as a pup,
I win the "Paper Loving Cup"
For I don't know which Hazel.

The guy who wrote "Which Hazel,"
is in a padded cell.
Both his girls are married now,
and both have married well.
He has their photographs,
He looks at them and laughs.

Which Hazel, which Hazel?
which Hazel shall I choose?
Which Hazel, which Hazel?
Oh boy I've got the blues.
One's homely but wealthy,
The other's poor but swell.
One's an American
and the other lives in New Rochelle.
Which Hazel, which Hazel,
my brain is in a whirl,
Which Hazel shall turn out
to be the girl? There's
Hazel eyes and Hazel nut,
I love them and they love me but
to tell the truth
I'm in a rut,
I think I'll marry Christmas.

Which Hazel, which Hazel?
which Hazel shall I choose?
Which Hazel, which Hazel?
Oh boy I've got the blues.
One's homely but wealthy,
The other's poor but swell.
One's an American
and the other lives in New Rochelle.
Which Hazel, which Hazel,
my brain is in a whirl,
Which Hazel shall turn out
to be the girl? Oh!
They went swimming one fine day
where they didn't have to pay,
The wind blew all their clothes away,
You cannot fool a horse fly.
