Yes My Darling Daughter 1940

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 07 Jun 2005

I've got to be good
or mama will scold me.
Yes! Yes! Yes!
I asked her, and this
is what she told me
Yes! Yes! Yes!

Mother, may I go out dancing?
Yes, my darling daughter.
Mother, may I go romancing?
Yes, my darling daughter.
What if there's a moon, mama darling
and it's shining on the water,
Mother, must I keep on dancing?
Yes, my darling daughter.
What if he'll propose, mama darling,
when the night is growing shorter,
Mother, what should be my answer?
Yes, my darling daughter.

Mother, will it be exciting?
Yes, my darling daughter.
Mother, do I look inviting?
Yes, my darling daughter.
If he holds me tight, mama darling,
and my knees just turn to water,
Mother, must I keep on dancing?
Yes, my darling daughter.
What if he persists, mama darling,
doing things he hadn't oughta?
Mother, what should be my answer?
Yes and no my daughter.
