I'd cry yes!\\ I'd lay me down and die, Yes! die,\\ If I should lose my Honey-man.\\ \\ He's got the grandest heart,\\ He's got the biggest heart I even knew before,\\ He's more than twice as nice as any other man,\\ And then some more;\\ When he gets along beside me, Oh, That man,\\ He springs little tricks of love, like no one can,\\ And when that man does kiss,\\ I shake with bliss,\\ I hear myself a-singing all the while.\\ \\ ++ *Joe McCarthy, 1911
