Your presence is requested, wrote little Johnny White
But with this invitation, there is a stipulation
When you attend this party, you'll be treated right, but
There's a wild and wooly woman you boys can't invite, now...

You can bring Pearl, she's a darn nice girl, but don't bring Lulu
You can bring Rose with the turned up nose, but don't bring Lulu
Lulu always wants to do, what we boys don't want her to
When she struts her stuff around, London bridge is falling down
You can bring cake or Porterhouse steak, but don't bring Lulu
Lulu gets blue and she goes cuckoo like the clock on the shelf
She's the kind of smartie who breaks up every party
Hullabalooloo, don't bring Lulu, I'll bring her myself

We all went to the party, real high-toned affair
Then along came Lulu, wild as any Zulu
She started into Charleston, and how the boys did stare, but
When she did the hula-hula, then she got the air, now...

You can bring Pearl, she's a darn nice girl, but don't bring Lulu
You can bring Rose with the turned up nose, but don't bring Lulu
Lulu always wants to do, what we boys don't want her to
When she struts her stuff around, London bridge is falling down
You can bring cake or Porterhouse steak, but don't bring Lulu
Lulu gets blue and she goes cuckoo like the clock on the shelf
She's the kind of smartie who breaks up every party
Hullabalooloo, don't bring Lulu, I'll bring her myself
