  *++Lyrics:|\\
Oh! what a thing it is to be\\
A girl with lots of beaux,\\
The number of young men I've got,\\
Well goodness only knows;\\
Whene'er I'm walking down the street,\\
I'm nearly always sure to meet\\
A young man who will call me sweet,\\
And then so gently say:\\
\\
//chorus: //\\
Oh! you little darling, I love you.\\
Oh! you little darling, are you true?\\
If you really love me as you ought to do,\\
Nothing in this world shall cut our love in two.\\
//(repeat chorus)//\\
\\
Although I don't intend to wed,\\
To settle down in life,\\
I've promised nearly forty men,\\
That I will be their wife;\\
Some fellows tell me that I am\\
Their darling, loving, little lamb,\\
While some call me their bit of jam,\\
And other fellows say:\\
\\
Upon my word, I don't intend\\
To wear the wedding ring,\\
While for a kiss they give to me\\
No end of pretty things;\\
Whene'er they kiss me, once or twice,\\
Although by some it's called a vice,\\
I must confess I think it nice,\\
Especially when they say:\\
\\
