Who's Your Lady Friend?    (1914)

Jeramiah Jones, a lady's man was he,
Every pretty girl he liked to spoon
Till he found a wife and down beside the sea
Went to Margate for the honeymoon;
But when he strolled along the promenade
With his little wife just newly wed,
He got an awful scare when someone strolling there,
Came up to him and winked and said:

Hello! Hello! Who's your lady friend?
Who's the little girlie by your side?
I've seen you with a girl or two
Oh! Oh! Oh! I am surprised at you;
Hello! Hello! Stop your little games
Don't you think your ways you ought to mend?
It isn't the girl I saw you with at Brighton
Who, who, who's your lady friend?

Jeremiah now has settled down in life,
Said goodbye to frills and furbelows;
Never thinks of girls except his darling wife,
Always takes her everywhere he goes
By jove, why! There he is you naughty boy!
With a lady too, you're rather free
Of course, you'll stake your life, the lady is your wife
But tell me on the strict Q.T.:

Hello! Hello! Who's your lady friend?
Who's the little girlie by your side?
I've seen you with a girl or two
Oh! Oh! Oh! I am surprised at you;
Hello! Hello! Stop your little games
Don't you think your ways you ought to mend?
It isn't the girl I saw you with at Brighton
Who, who, who's your lady friend?
