Ma He's Making Eyes At Me - Tennessee Ernie Ford

Little Lilly was all so silly and shy

and all the girlies knew

she wouldn’t bill and coo

Every single night some smart fella would try

to cuddle up to her

but she would cry

Ma he’s making eyes at me

Ma he’s awful nice to me

Ma he’s almost breakin' my heart

He’s beside me

Mercy!

Let my conscience guide me!

Ma he wants to marry me

be my honey bee

Every minute he gets bolder

Now he’s leanin' on my shoulder

Ma he’s kissing me

Ma he’s making eyes at me

Ma he’s awful nice to me

Ma he’s almost breakin' my heart

He’s beside me

Mercy!

Let my conscience guide me!

Ma he wants to marry me,

Be my honey bee

Ma I’m meeting with resistence

I shall holler for assistance

Ma he’s kissing me
