I love the girl I left behind me,
I know she waits for my return,
soon to her arms you're going to find me,
Oh! how I'll hold her,
I wrote and told her:

You'll hear me calling YooHoo
'neath your window some sweet day,
you'll hear me calling YooHoo
and you'll know I'm home to stay,
When I hear your cheery answer
it will make my dreams come true,
Because I know that YooHoo
means I love you.

You'll hear me calling YooHoo
'neath your window some sweet day,
you'll hear me calling YooHoo
and you'll know I'm home to stay,
When I hear your cheery answer
it will make my dreams come true,
Because I know that YooHoo
means I love you.

Back in our days of happy childhood,
yoohoo meant please come out and play,
I was so bashful in the wildwood
now I am bolder,
I wrote and told her:

You'll hear me calling YooHoo
'neath your window some sweet day,
you'll hear me calling YooHoo
and you'll know I'm home to stay,
When I hear your cheery answer
it will make my dreams come true,
Because I know that YooHoo
means I love you.

You'll hear me calling YooHoo
'neath your window some sweet day,
you'll hear me calling YooHoo
and you'll know I'm home to stay,
When I hear your cheery answer
it will make my dreams come true,
Because I know that YooHoo
means I love you.
