Don't Bring Lulu
Lyrics by: Lew Brown, Billy Rose        Music by: Ray Henderson
Originally made famous by: Van and Schenk

Verse:
    C                Fm6 C               G7   F   G7    F C    A7 Gdim
V1: "Your presence is re--quested," wrote lit--tle John--ny White,
V2: We   all went to the party, A    real hi- toned af-fair,

    G7                     C       D7                  G7
    "But with is in---vi---tation, there is   a stipu-lation,
      And Then a--long came Lulu,   As    wild as an--y Zulu,

    G7          C    Fm6 C               G7 F   G7    F   C
    When you at-tend this par----ty, you all be treat-ed right, but
    She started in   to   Charleston, and how the boys did stare, but

    G          D7       G Dm7 E7    Am       D7       G    G+5
    There's a   wild and wooly woman you boys can't in--vite, now.
    When    she did the hu-la hula, then she got   the air, now.

Chorus:
    C             Am7    C                   Am7   C         Ebdim G7
C1: You can bring Pearl, she's a   darn nice girl, but don't bring Lulu.
C2: You can bring Nan,   with the old dead pan, but don't bring Lulu.

    G7                                                             D7
    You can bring Rose with the turned up   nose, but don't bring Lulu.
    You can bring Tess with her "No"   and "Yes", but don't bring Lulu.

    F             Fm               Ebdim C             A7
    Lulu al--ways wants to   do,   what we boys don't want her to,
    Lulu has the red---dest hair, Red---der here and   red--der there,

    D7                        Fdim       D7               G             G7
    When she struts her stuff a---round, Lon---don bridge is   fal--ling down,
    How can we    boys keep our head. Bulls go wild   when they see red.

    C             Am7 C                  Am7    C         Ebdim G7
    You can bring cake or Porter---house steak, but don't bring Lulu.
    You can bring peas and crullers and   cheese, but don't bring Lulu

    G7                                                         Dm G7 E7
    Lulu gets blue and   she    goes cuc-koo like the clock up---on the shelf,
    Give her two beers and she tears portiers And she throws cups off the shelf

    Dm                   Fm6          Am7            C   A7   D7   G7
    She's the kind of   smartie who breaks up eve-ry par--ty,
    When she loves with feeling "The boys   all hit the ceil-ing

    C      Am C    D7                C            Dm   G7 C    G7
    Hullabaloo loo, don't bring Lulu, I'll   bring her my-self.
    Hullabaloo loo, don't bring Lulu, She'll come here herself.
