Along Came Ruth

歌詞

[1st verse:] I had girls by the score Yes, a hundred or more Each one as nice as could be It was hard to decide Which I'd want for my bride They all looked lovely to me While I was trying to choose one I met a wonderful girl She came tripping along Like a beautiful song Setting my brain in a whirl [Refrain:] I was growing very fond of Molly When along came Ruth, along came Ruth I thought an awful lot of Dolly When Ruth came along My head began to "Merry-go-round" I almost married Polly I was making love to May When along came Ruth And to tell the truth She stole my heart away [2nd verse:] There's a right little girl With the right little curl For ev'ry right little boy When she comes, you'll forget All the others you've met Sorrow will turn into joy She doesn't have to be pretty She doesn't have to be wise When she comes you will find Tho' they say love is blind She'll make you open your eyes
