Album: Makin' Whoopee With "Banjo Eyes"

Dressed up in a gown that trails on the floor
In a picture hat that your mommy wore
Living in a world that you never saw
My little lady make believe
What a pair of shoes for two tiny feet
What a pair of gloves the fingers don’t meet
Posing in a glass, your joy is complete
My little lady make believe
In your little arms the doll you unfold
Means the world and all to you
But you could never love the doll that you hold
Half as much as I love you, dear
Dream your little dreams and may they come true
May the coming years bring happiness, too
All my future dreams are wrapped up in you
My little lady make believe
Fall in love, fall in love says my heart
It’s romance, take a chance says my heart
But each time that I’m almost in your arms
This old school teacher brain of mine keeps ringing in false alarms
Then my head rules instead and I’m wise
To the scheme of that gleam in your eyes
Then I kiss and run, but the moment we’re apart
Oh, you fool, that was love
Says my heart
Dream your little dreams and may they come true
May the coming years bring happiness, too
All my future dreams are wrapped up in you
My little lady make believe
