Where Did You Get That Girl?
Composer(s): Bert Kalmar; Harry Puck



Lonesome Johnnie Warner, sitting in a corner of a swell cafe 
eating his heart away because he had no girl 
at another table, sat a girl named Mable 
with a fellow who Johnnie knew
and his brain began to whirl
The girl had caught his eye and John began to cry

Johnnie found a corker, started in to walk her down the avenue
Down to the parson who would make them man and wife
Parson Lee received him, and when he relieved him of the marriage fee 
Parson Lee said never on my life, have I seen such a miss 
say Johnnie tell me this

Where did you get that girl? 
Oh! you lucky devil 
Where did you get that girl? 
tell me on the level 
Have you ever kissed her 
if she has a sister lead me, lead me, lead me to her mister
Gee! I wish that I had a girl 
I'd love 'er I'd love er 
Oh goodness how I'd love er 
If you can find another, I'll take her home to mother 
Where! Where! Where did you get that girl?

Where did you get that girl? 
Oh! you lucky devil 
Where did you get that girl? 
tell me on the level 
Have you ever kissed her 
if she has a sister lead me, lead me, lead me to her mister
Gee! I wish that I had a girl 
I'd love er 
I'd love er 
Oh goodness how I'd love er 
If she's here long I'm liable to give away my bible
Where! Where! Where did you get that girl?
