No. 20 - Song - Dick and Chorus - "My Cosy Corner Girl."

MIDI File

Dick: Beside the murmuring sad sea waves
some lovers like to sit,
And watch the white-wing'd seagulls o'er
old Ocean's bosom flit;
While others claim a country lane,
With moon-light bright above,
Is the ideal and only real
and proper place for love.
By silv'ry stream some say love's dream
Takes on an added zest,
There ev'ry glance speaks of romance,
And kisses taste the best;
Then cheek to cheek on mountain peak
Some love to flirt and kiss,
But of all the lot, the choicest spot
in my opinion's this:
In a little corner cosy,
Where I sit with my darling Rosie,
With her dear little hand in mine,
And gaze into eyes divine.
Ah! my cosy corner pillow
Beats the moon-light, stream or billow;
And my head's in a whirl
As I kiss each curl
of my cosy corner girl!
Chorus: In a little corner cosy,
Where I sit with my darling Rosie,
With her dear little hand in mine,
And gaze into eyes divine.
Ah! my cosy corner pillow
Beats the moon-light, stream or billow;
And my head's in a whirl
As I kiss each curl
of my cosy corner girl!
   
Dick: With lamp turn'd low, naught but the glow
of soft and mystic light,
I seek my cosy corner,
And the girl I love tonight.
'Mid draperies and downy case,
Luxurious, and divine,
I take sweet sips from ruby lips
of she who's only mine.
On moon-light tryst let some insist,
By mountain lake, or stream,
Where rude mosquitoes interfere,
And spoil love's sweet young dream.
In woody dell let others tell
Of love's sweet ecstacy,
But when I spoon I want no moon,
the place I choose will be:
In a little corner cosy,
Where I sit with my darling Rosie,
With her dear little hand in mine,
And gaze into eyes divine.
Ah! my cosy corner pillow
Beats the moon-light, stream or billow;
And my head's in a whirl
As I kiss each curl
of my cosy corner girl!
Chorus: In a little corner cosy,
Where I sit with my darling Rosie,
With her dear little hand in mine,
And gaze into eyes divine.
Ah! my cosy corner pillow
Beats the moon-light, stream or billow;
And my head's in a whirl
As I kiss each curl
of my cosy corner girl!
