You Were Never Introduced To Me 1902

Jasper Johnson
met Linda Jones at a ball,
He told Miss Linda
she was the queen of them all.
"You are just as cute as cute can be."
She says: "Now man, you don't know me,
for you was never introduced, you see."
Jasper Johnson was paralyzed at such talk.
Told Miss Linda
he'd meet her on the walk.
But she said: "Man,
you'd better watch out,
there's others here
knows just what you'se about
and in an angry way
began to shout.

Say, man, what d'you mean?
Don't call me your queen;
Don't be so free,
I don't like such ways you see.
Now, sir, go your way,
You'll lose if you stay,
I know, an' you know,
you were never introduced to me.

Say, man, what d'you mean?
Don't call me your queen;
Don't be so free,
I don't like such ways you see.
Now, sir, go your way,
You'll lose if you stay,
I know, an' you know,
you were never introduced to me.

Jasper Johnson
didn't like to hear such news,
But when she spoke
it simply gave him the blues.
He tried ev'ry way to 'pologize
while the tears
were streaming from his eyes,
But Linda Jones
just simply passed him by.
I'd give this world
to make that gel my wife,
If she was mine,
I'd happy be for life,
but when he spoke to her once more,
her answer made him very sad and sore,
Then in a frowning way she said once more.

Say, man, what d'you mean?
Don't call me your queen;
Don't be so free,
I don't like such ways you see.
Now, sir, go your way,
You'll lose if you stay,
I know, an' you know,
you were never introduced to me.

Say, man, what d'you mean?
Don't call me your queen;
Don't be so free,
I don't like such ways you see.
Now, sir, go your way,
You'll lose if you stay,
I know, an' you know,
you were never introduced to me.
