I gotta love for Mary Pick,
I love dat Chaplin, too –
I no can go see both o‘ dem,
So w‘at I gona do?
Oh, Mary, ees so pretta girl,
She‘s gotta hair so black an‘ curl,
An‘ teeth so white, lak anytheeng –
I bat she gotta voice to seeng!
An‘ w‘en she starta sob an‘ cry,
I feel jus‘ lak I gona die!
But Chaplin he‘s no gotta weep;
He‘s maka laugh – an‘ den he‘s keep
You laughin‘ till you no can speak,
An‘ tears, dey rolla down your cheek.
You oughta see him fall down stair,
I tal you w‘at, you‘re glad you‘re dere!
I gotta love for Charlie Chap‘
An‘ Mary Pickford, too –
I only gotta wanna dime,
So, w‘at I gona do?
