Fats Waller My Very Good Friend The Milkman
My very good friend the milkman says
That I've been losing too much sleep.
He doesn't like the hours I keep.
He suggests that you should marry me.
My very good friend the mailman says
That it would make his burden less
If we could have the same address
That he suggest that you should marry me.
Then there's a very friendly fellow,
Who prints all the latest real estate news,
And every day he sends me blueprints
of cottages with country views.
My very good friends and neighbour says
They've been watching little things I do
And they believe that I love you.
So I suggest that you should marry me.
(Musical Interlude)
Oh, my very good friend and neighbour says
They've been watching little things I do
And they believe that I love.
So I suggest that you should marry me.
