[1st verse:]
|
Now sweet Flo and Joe with lights burning low
|
Sat spooning as all lovers do
|
Her wee sister Rose
|
Stood up on her toes
|
And eagerly kept peeping through
|
Oh my, oh what bliss
|
She soon heard them kiss
|
As he gently called her "my dear"
|
The very next day
|
When Flo came her way
|
She whispered these words in her ear:
|
|
[Refrain:]
|
Oh! what I know about you
|
Oh! what I know about you
|
Don't say you didn't 'cause I overheard
|
Honest to goodness, I won't say a word
|
Oh! what I know about you
|
Something that I wouldn't do
|
Far be it from me
|
To repeat what I see
|
But, oh! what I know about you
|
|
[2nd verse:]
|
Next evening when Joe called 'round to see Flo
|
He found little Rose all alone
|
In her cunning way
|
He soon heard her say
|
"My sister said she's not at home"
|
Her face wore a grin
|
She said, "Please come in"
|
Poor Joseph, oh my, what he saw
|
There sat pretty Flo
|
With her other beau
|
Rose cried to her sister once more:
|
