"The Future Mrs. 'Awkins" Lyrics

I know a little darling, I'm about to own her
She's gonna marry me
At first, she said she wouldn't, then she said she couldn't
Then she whispered, 'well, I'll see'
'If you'll be Mrs. Hawkins, Mrs. Henry Hawkins
All across the sea, I'll roam
So help me, boys, I'm crazy, Lizer, you're a daisy
Won't you share my humble home? Oh, won't you?'

Oh, Lizer, sweet Lizer
If you die an old maid, you'll have only yourself to blame
Sweet Lizer, dear Lizer
How do you fancy Hawkins for your other name?

She wears an artful bonnet, feathers stuck upon it
Covering a fringe all curled
She's just about the sweetest, prettiest and neatest
Dearie in the whole, wide world
And she'll be Mrs. Hawkins, Mrs. Henry Hawkins
I've got her to name the day
We settled it last Monday, so off to church on Sunday
Off we trots with donkey shay, oh, now then...

Oh, Lizer, sweet Lizer
If you die an old maid, you'll have only yourself to blame
Sweet Lizer, dear Lizer
Mrs. Henry Hawkins is a first-class name
Oh, Lizer, sweet Lizer
If you die an old maid, you'll have only yourself to blame
Sweet Lizer, dear Lizer
Mrs. Henry Hawkins is a first-class name

Oh, Lizer, sweet Lizer
If you die an old maid, you'll have only yourself to blame
Sweet Lizer, dear Lizer
Mrs. Henry Hawkins is a first-class name
Oh, Lizer, sweet Lizer
If you die an old maid, you'll have only yourself to blame
Sweet Lizer, dear Lizer
Mrs. Henry Hawkins is a first-class name.........
