Here's another song with a similar title. The New York Public Library has the sheet music for this one:


IN HONEYSUCKLE TIME (WHEN EMALINE SAID SHE'D BE MINE)
Words and Music by Noble Sissle and Eubie Blake
From the musical "Shuffle Along" (1921, revived on Broadway in 1933 and 1952)
M. Witmark & Sons, ©1921.

Ev'rybody loves Emaline.
She's the gal that all the fellows hang around.
Ev'rybody knows Emaline.
Why, she's the pal of ev'ry other gal in town.
But ev'ry pal and gal will soon be singing the blues
When they hear the latest news.

In honeysuckle time
Sweet Emaline
Said she'd be mine,
And in the wedding line,
There'll be no hesitating,
For the preacher will be waiting,
When the knot am tied,
With "Emy" by my side.
All the fellows will be jealous and feeling kinda rough
When I come along with Emaline a-struttin' my "stuff."
Hot dog, my soul, gonna knock 'em cold!
Why, I'll be worth my weight in gold
In honeysuckle time
When Emaline
Said she'd be mine.

[This song was revived in the revue "Bubbling Brown Sugar" (1976).]
