MIDI File

Girls: If you desire to see your little girlie,
Tho' I fear it's rather early,
Why not pay her a call?
Adolfo: I might not find her at all.
Girls: But if you were to send a little greeting,
Surely she would soon arrange a meeting.
She could say when she will be alone,
when she will be alone!
Adolfo: I think I'll telephone
My little maidy,
Telephone this pretty young lady.
If I may not see her, I'll rejoice
To hear her sweet and tender little voice.
Girls: Yes, telephone and tell her only
If she is feeling lonely
You'll be there.
Adolfo: I must look her number up somewhere!
Are you there, Exchange?
Gladys: What number, please?
Adolfo: Ring up "Cupid, double-one-two!"
Gladys: Double-one-two! You're through!
Adolfo: Hello, dearie, is that you?
1st. Girl: How are you, little man?
Call round if you can!
Adolfo: I have bought for you some flow'rs and a fan!
2nd. Girl: Do you love me truly?
Adolfo: Of course I do!
3rd. Girl: Do you love me truly?
Adolfo: Of course I do!
You know I love no other girl but you.
Girls: That's all I want to know.
Ring off!
   
Girls: Perhaps you'd like a longer conversation
If you love the declaration
Cupid quickly inspired.
Adolfo: I may be making him tired!
Girls: Now you're cut off I fancy it will grieve her,
P'r'haps she lingers yet at the receiver,
Whisp'ring words in quite a loving tone,
in quite a loving tone.
Adolfo: Once more I'll telephone
And tell her sweetly
I belong unto her completely
If the wires should cross, they often do,
Then I'll be cross until they put me through.
Girls: Yes, telephone and never tarry
If you desire to marry
This fair miss.
Adolfo: Shall I send a telephonic kiss?
Are you there, Exchange?
Gladys: What number, please?
Adolfo: Ring up "Cupid, double-one-two!"
Gladys: Double-one-two! You're through!
Adolfo: Hello, dearie, is that you?
1st. Girl: I am your little girl,
My heart's in a whirl!
Adolfo: I've a ring for you with a diamond and pearl!
2nd. Girl: Do you love me truly?
Adolfo: Of course I do!
3rd. Girl: Do you love me truly?
Adolfo: Of course I do!
You know I love no other girl but you.
Girls: That's all I want to know.
Ring off!
