OH MR. DREAM MAN (PLEASE LET ME DREAM SOME MORE)
(Jimmie V. Monaco,   1917)


Talk about your funny dreams, 
I had one of them, it seems, 
And it made me feel so goody, goody, 
'T wasn't sad. Nothing bad 
Just about some one that I could love. 
If this dream does not come true, 
Then I know what I will do; 
I will kneel down on my knees 
and pray until I dream and dream and this I'll say:

I'd be satisfied with life, 
Just to be his little wife, 
I would and squeeze and tease and please him 
Night and day, 
Till he'd say: "You're the one that I've been looking for." 
Oh, I wish he would be mine, 
I would love him all the time! 
Then I know I'd be so happy, happy, 
No more would I pray and need to say:

Oh, Mister Dream Man, 
please let me dream some more, 
Just like the dream I had the night before, 
I dreamt about a lovin' man, he was so sweet! 
And when he started lovin' me, my heart began to beat, 
And when he kissed me, H-m-m-m-m-m! 
He made me ask for more. 
He's a prize 
I idolize his great big dreamy dark brown eyes, 
Oh, Mister Dream Man 
I want to dream some more.
