"Sung nightly with immense success by the celebrated baritone Lloyd Wilson, with Hoyt's 'A Trip to Chinatown'"
SHE'S MY BEST GIRL
John St. George
Boston: White-Smith Music Pub. Co., 1893.

1. In yonder cottage by the sea,
Dwells my best girl.
Bright and handsome as can be
Is my best girl.
I call on her ev'ry Sunday eve. She greets me with a smile.
When Cupid lurks and softly lies in ambush in angel's guise.

CHORUS: She's my best girl, don't you know?
Soon we'll marry. I love her so!
When the wedding bells they ring,
When the bridal song we sing,
All the hours will pleasure bring.
She's my best girl.

2. While singing, dancing all day long,
With my best girl,
Sweet as flowers on the lawn,
Is my best girl.
My heart with joy is overflow'd. My love she holds the key.
The wedding bells you'll hear at dawn. How happy then we will be!
