The Johnny Otis Show - Ma, He's Makin' Eyes At Me lyrics

Little Lilly was oh! So silly and shy And all the fellows knew She wouldn't bill and coo: Ev'ry single night some smart fellow would try O cuddle up to her, but she would cry: "Ma, he's making eyes at me! Ma he's awful nice to me! Ma he's almost breaking my heart I'm beside him, Mercy! Let his conscience guide him! Ma, he wants to marry me Be my honey bee Ev'ry minute he gets bolder Now he's leaning on my shoulder Ma, he's kissing me!" Lilly was so good, ev'ry body could tell You'd never see her roam She'd always stay at home; All the neighbors knew little Lilly too well For when the boys would call, They'd hear her yell: Ma, he's making eyes at me! Ma he's awful nice to me! Ma he's almost breaking my heart If you peek in, Can't you see I'm goin' to weaken? Ma, he wants to marry me Be my honey bee Ma, I'm meeting with resistance I shall holler for a**istance Ma, he's kissing me!"
