OH, I DIDN'T KNOW (YOU'D GET THAT WAY)
From the film "George White's 1935 Scandals"
(Music: Joseph Meyer / Lyrics: Jack Yellen & Cliff Friend)
Alice Faye (film Soundtrack) – 1935
What happened to you mister
You used to treat me like a sister
But how you have blazed
And am I amazed
You started very sweetly
Now you have changed your way completely
>From a meek and mild man
You’ve become a wild man
Oh, oh you rascal you
What a man you turned into
What pretty things you’ve learned to do
Oh, I didn’t know you’d get that way
I didn’t realise
That little twinkle in your eyes
Was only hotcha in disguise
Oh, I didn’t know you’d get that way
My heart is full of joy that I never knew
You great big naughty boy
How d’you do, do, do
What you do, do, do
There isn’t any doubt
You know what love is all about
And am I glad I found it out
Oh, I didn’t know you’d get that way
(Musical Break)
Oh, oh you rascal you
What a man you turned into
What pretty things you’ve learned to do
Oh, I didn’t know you’d get that way
I didn’t realise
That little twinkle in your eyes
Was only hotcha in disguise
Oh, I didn’t know you’d get that way
My heart is full of joooooooooyyyyy
You great big naughty boy
How d’you do, do, do
What you do, do, do
There isn’t any doubt
You know what love is all about
And am I glad I found it out
Oh, I didn’t know, you rascal you
Oh, I didn’t know, but now I do
Oh, you rascal you, I didn’t know you’d get that way
