PLAY IT ON YOUR LITTLE UKE I went over to Jersey town, Play it on your little Ukulele Bullfrog kicked all the houses down, Play it on your little Uke Beefsteak and a mutton chop, Play it on your little Ukulele makes my mouth go fliperty pa flop Play it on your little Uke. A Jay bird sat on a hickery limb, Play it on your little Ukulele He wink'd at me and I wink'd at him, Play it on your little Uke I pick'd up a stone and I hit his shin, Play it on your little Ukulele Says he, "you better not do that again," Play it on your little Uke. I hab a sweetheart in dis town, Play it on your little Ukulele She wears a yellow striped gown; Play it on your little Uke And when she walks de street around, Play it on your little Ukulele De hollow of her foot make a hole in de ground, Play it on your little Uke. --I copied the lyrics as printed in a 1920s ukulele song book. The title page is missing, so I can't say which book it is. Rose, I don't know if you're still searching for the lyrics since this thread is from nearly two decades ago, but if you are, I hope you see this! -C.M.
