Do Me A Favour - Fats Waller
Do me a favour,
Marry me!
Do me a favour,
Can't you see
I'm in a quaver
To be middle aisling you?
Oh babe,
Do me a favour,
Share my lot.
Do me a favour,
Tie the knot!
Darling, don't waver
And we'll come smiling through!
Say the word, dear,
We'll do as other folks do,
Raise two or three!
It's absurd, dear,
That I should have to coax you,
Don't be that way, take a chance with me!
Oh do me a favour,
When we're one,
Oh baby, we'll have fun!
I won't forget it, so do me a favour dear!
(Bob, will you plunk on them strings,
plunk 'em, plunk 'em!)
(Yes! Yes!)
Oh do me a favour,
Marry me!
Oh babe,
Can't you see
I'm in a quaver
To middle aisle with you?
Baby, share my lot.
Baby, tie the knot!
Don't waver
'Cause we'll come smilin' through!
Say the word, dear,
We'll raise two or three!
It's absurd, dear,
Don't be that way, take a chance with me!
Oh you won't regret it
When we're one,
You won't regret it,
We'll have fun!
I won't forget it,
Do me a favour dear, yes yes!
(Listen honey, have you got a dollar ninety?
'Cause I've got the dime! But you might as well
go out and find the parson, ha-ha!)
