Gotta get my old tuxedo pressed
Gotta sew a button on my vest
'Cause tonight I've gotta look my best
Lulu's back in town

You can tell all my pets
All my Harlem coquettes
Mister Otis regrets
That he won't be aroun'

You can tell the mailman not to call
I ain't comin' home until the fall
And again I might not get back home at all
Lulu's back in town, yeah

Who's dignified, who's glorified
Miss Annabelle Lee
What makes me fall
She has it all, just look and see
So you ain't telling me a thing boy
I'm tellin' you
Who's wonderful, who's marvelous
Miss Annabelle Lee

For it is Mary, Mary
Plain as any name can be
But will propriety, society
Say Marie
But it was Mary, Mary
Long before the fashions came
But there's something there
That sounds so square
It's a grand old name

Katie, beautiful Katie
Your the only girl that I adore
When the Moon shine's over the cowshed
I'll be waiting at the kitchen door

Katie, beautiful Katie
Your the only girl that I adore
When the Moon shine's over the cowshed
I'll be waiting at the kitchen door

Oh does your mother know your out, Cecilia
Does she know that I'm about to steal ya'
Oh my when I look in your eyes
Something tells me
You and I should get together
How about a little kiss, Cecilia
Just a kiss, you'll never miss, Cecilia
Oh why do we two keep on wating time
Oh, Cecilia, say that you'll be mine

Ramona, I hear the mission bells above
Ramona, they're ringing out our song of love
I press you, caress you
And bless the day you started to care
To always remember
The rambling rose you wore in your hair
Ramona, when day is done you'll hear my call
Ramona, well meet beside the waterfall
I dread the dawn when I awake to find you gone
Ramona, I need you my all

Laura is the face in the misty light
Footsteps that you hear down the hall
The laugh that floats on a summer night
That you can never quite recall

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, You beautiful doll
You great big beautiful doll
Let me put tmy arms around you
I could never live without you
Oh, You beautiful doll
You great big beautiful doll
If you ever leave me how my heart would ache
I wanna hug you but I fear you would break
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, You beautiful
Sweet and beautiful
Oh, You beautiful doll
Doll, doll, doll, doll.
