Recorded  26th August 1932



I got a little gal who dresses very well,
Dresses very well, dresses very well,
I watched her once so I can tell
Tell me ain’t ya comin’ out tonight

Ain’t ya, ain’t ya, ain’t ya, ain’t ya comin’ out tonight
Comin’ out tonight, comin’ out tonight
Ain’t ya, ain’t ya, ain’t ya, ain’t ya comin’ out tonight
To dance by the light of the moon

Got a little gal whose father got a fright
Father got a fright, father got a fright,
He’s had it ever since his weddin’ night
Tell me ain’t ya comin’ out tonight

Ain’t ya, ain’t ya, ain’t ya, ain’t ya comin’ out tonight
Comin’ out tonight, comin’ out tonight
Ain’t ya, ain’t ya, ain’t ya, ain’t ya comin’ out tonight
To dance by the light of the moon

I got a little gal who sits on my knees
Sits on my knees, sits on my knees
We’ll leave it at that, no questions please
Tell me ain’t ya comin’ out tonight

(instrumental break)

Took my little gal down the railroad track
The railroad track, the railroad track
I stole a little kiss but she made me put it back
Tell me ain’t ya comin’ out tonight

Ain’t ya, ain’t ya, ain’t ya, ain’t ya comin’ out tonight
Comin’ out tonight, comin’ out tonight
Ain’t ya, ain’t ya, ain’t ya, ain’t ya comin’ out tonight
To dance by the light of the moon

(spoken)
(male voice)
Tell me haven’t I met you somewhere before?

(female voice)
No, I’ve never been there.
