No. 28 - Song - Lady Violet and Chorus - "Come along with me."
Lady Violet: | When I was extremely small, Only three or four, I did nothing wrong at all For a week or more. Auntie brought my cloak and hood, Brush'd my hair out neat, Saying, you have been so good, You shall have a treat! I will go with you, To the Zoo! Zoo, Zoo. Come along with me, To the Zoo, dear; Elephants you'll see, Great big bears and tigers, We will have some tea, Tea for two, dear! You've been a good little girl, So come along with me! |
Chorus: | Come along with me, To the Zoo, dear; Elephants you'll see, Great big bears and tigers, We will have some tea, Tea for two, dear! You've been a good little girl, So come along with me! |
Lady Violet: | I was at a school while young, With a garden fair, Rosy apples overhung From the orchard there. But we knew they must belong To the other side, So to gather them was wrong, Yet I fear we tried. When we went to play, Someone used to say: Come along with me, By the wall, dear; Nobody you'll see, I hear Mam'selle snoring. You can reach the tree, You're so tall, dear; Apples are just getting ripe, So come along with me! |
Chorus: | Come along with me, By the wall, dear; Nobody you'll see, I hear Mam'selle snoring. You can reach the tree, You're so tall, dear; Apples are just getting ripe, So come along with me! |
Lady Violet: | When I grew an older girl, Eager for romance, I was in a perfect whirl At my first big dance! One young man whose eyes were dark Look'd extremely nice, And I met him in the Park, Only once or twice! But I turn'd so red When one day he said: Come along with me, Will you not, dear? Married we will be, Then go honeymooning; Italy we'll see, That's the spot, dear! You've been a good little girl, So come along with me. |
Chorus: | Come along with me, Will you not, dear? Married we will be, Then go honeymooning; Italy we'll see, That's the spot, dear! You've been a good little girl, So come along with me. |
