MY GIRL,

My girl works in a ten-cent store
She Is some dame. believe me. too
There amt many Of them that score
Iongside of her in what they do.
You ought to see her selling socks
Proud as a queen, to them guys with
rocks;
They get theirs proper II she gets sore
When they josh my girl in the ten-cent
store.
You ought to pipe US when work Is done
Going to lamp q movie show;
She's just as classy as anyone
Showing me how to spend my dough;
Chaplin. and Pickford. and Reid, and
Hart
Speaking OF critics. there amt no roar
On the dope Of my girl from the ten-cent
store,
She's Just as good as she can be
Helping her folks with half her pay,
Never word at all says she.
Taking il home each Saturday;
Saves just enough to buy her clothes
Dolling herself in the way she knows
There ain'tSa dame looks as well on more
Than my girl earns In the ten-cent store
I'm going to marry some time next year
just as soon as I get my raise,
Living Just now is mighty dear,
Fellow must hustle before he pays.
But am sure We can make it go
She says We can. and it must be so;
When we get settled, there'll be no more
Working for her In a ten-cent store.
