[Lyric] Cant You Wait? 1929 Recording (Frankie "Half-Pint" Jaxon)

[Intro]
I'm gonna sing you a song entitled "Roses are red and coal is black
If your pants is too loose, pull in the slack"

[Verse]
Hattie and Harry decided to marry
So they went on their honey moon
Why, she was romantic, and he was a fanatic
And everywhere that they would go, she would wanna spoon
Now if he wanted to give her just a little kiss
She would hand him a line of stuff, it would go just like this:

[Chorus 1]
Can't you wait till you get home?
Just wait until you're all alone
Why, I love you Harry, why, I think you'll do
But Harr', I talk to nobody else but you
Why, in the parlor all alone
Why, I love you, dear, until the cow come home
Why, I'm crazy about you, love you I [?]
But I can't demonstrate my passion here
Why, in the parlor all alone
Just wait until you and I get home
[Chorus 2]
Can't you wait till you get home?
Just wait until you're all alone
Why, I love you Harry, yes, I see
You tickle so, Harry, hee-hee-hee
Say, in the parlor all alone
I love you till the cows come home
Why, Harry, I love you, everybody knows
Stop that, Harry, you are tearin' my clothes
In the parlor all alone
Just wait until you get home

[Chorus 3]
Now can't you wait till you get home?
Just wait until you and I are all alone
Why, I love you Harry, why, you are so nice
Just wait home, dear, and we'll love, yes, twice
In the parlor all alone
Hey, I love you, honey, until you are all alone
Why, I'm crazy about you, you are fine
Alright now, Harry, baby, take your time
In the parlor all alone
Just wait until you get home, I mean dear
Wait until you get home
