Also mentioned by fumblefingers: IS ZAT YOU MYRTLE? Written by Bill Carlisle, Charlie Lovin, and Ira Louvin. As recorded by Bill Carlisle, 1953. CHORUS: "Is zat you, Myrtle?" "Did I hear Papa?" "Is zat you, Myrtle?" "Just a minute!" Is zat you, Myrtle? Is zat you, Myrtle? I guess you better send that scalawag home. (I guess you better send that scalawag home.) 1. I took my gal to the picture show. She promised me a kiss when we got home. My heart was a-drummin' an' I couldn't hardly wait To get her in my arms, but her daddy was awake. CHORUS 2. One night we was settin' in the old porch swing. I tell you it was the squeekin'est thing. Ever' time I tried to move in close, I could hear them big feet hit the floor. CHORUS 3. I figured out a plan all of my own. We pulled off our shoes about a mile from home. Soon as we turned in off o' the street, B'lieve to my soul he heard the patter of our feet. CHORUS
