Lyr Req: I Want Something to Practice On

Can anyone help with this.........

I want someone to practice on,
Someone to teach me to spoon,
If I went out with a girl, it's true,
I wouldn't know what the Dickens to do
I want someone to practice on,
To teach me the art sublime
And when I get a girl and start messing about
She'll know that I've served my time

The University of Oxford has sheet music described thus:

I WANT SOMETHING TO PRACTICE ON
Written and composed by Bert Lee; sung by Jay Laurier.
London: Francis, Day & Hunter, ©1916.
Song for voice and piano.
First line: I'm a likely young fellow, they tell me I'm likely.
First line of chorus: I want something to practice on.

It's on a CD being advertised at Windyridge Music Hall CDs.

I deleted a Spam message, but this is probably a good opportunity to refresh this request.
