Yankee Love 1911 Mabel McKinley

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 10 Aug 2005

Girlie, cuddle near me,
Girlie, won't you hear me?
I've been feeling blue,
ring the final curtain,
For I'm more than certain,
I'm in love with you.
Like my Yankee Father, Girlie,
I would rather die than prove untrue.
Fearless, undenying,
Yankee never dying.
Love I bear for you.

Red, White and Blue, love,
Real all for you, love,
all through and through, love,
Real Yankee Doodle Doo, love;
Honest and true, love,
I bring to you, love,
Old Kentucky, Alabama,
Mississippi, Louisianna, Yankee love.

Red, White and Blue, love,
Real all for you, love,
all through and through, love,
Real Yankee Doodle Doo, love;
Honest and true, love,
I bring to you, love,
Old Kentucky, Alabama,
Mississippi, Louisianna, Yankee love.

Girlie, flags are waving,
My poor heart's behaving.
Like a house on fire,
Church bells gaily ringing,
Mean I'll soon be bringing
home my heart's desire.
Thoughts of care or sorrow,
will be dead tomorrow,
when you wear my ring,
ere the morn arouses,
from the tops of houses,
to the world I'll sing.

Red, White and Blue, love,
Real all for you, love,
all through and through, love,
Real Yankee Doodle Doo, love;
Honest and true, love,
I bring to you, love,
Old Kentucky, Alabama,
Mississippi, Louisianna, Yankee love.

Red, White and Blue, love,
Real all for you, love,
all through and through, love,
Real Yankee Doodle Doo, love;
Honest and true, love,
I bring to you, love,
Old Kentucky, Alabama,
Mississippi, Louisianna, Yankee love.
