Hllo little girl, don't you remember me?
Hello little girl, don't you remember me?
Time ain't been so long, but I've had a break you see!

Well I'm doin' alright, found me a Kewpie doll,
Well I'm doin' alright, found me a Kewpie doll,
She lives two flights up, and she sends me with her smile!

Well she calls me her lover, well an' a bag or two,
Yes she calls me her lover, well an' a bag or two,
Ain't you sorry little girl that my new little girl ain't you?
