Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Let Me Call You Sweetheart
I found this quoted in a novel, "A Murderous Yarn" by Monica Ferris:

Let me call you Lizzie, I'm in love with you;
Let me hear you rattle down the av-e-nue;
Keep your headlights glowing, and your taillight, too;
Let me call you Lizzie, I'm in debt for you!

Miscellaneous other versions:

Let me call you Lizzie, I'm in love with you.
Let me see your head lights and your tail lights too.
Keep your wipers wiping on your windshield new.
Let me call you Lizzie, you old Ford you.

Let me call you Lizzie, I'm in debt for you.
Let me hear you rattle as you used to do.
Keep your headlights burning and your taillights too.
Let me call you Lizzie, I'm in debt for you."
