I'm gonna close this set today.
I feel this spirit coming on
of the great Eddie Cantor
Dm

My uncle Billy
gave me some advice
all on account of the girls
You're never out with
the same girly twice
Dm
C#
Am
I said look here, you needn't fear
what they're doing,
C#

why that's where the trouble comes in.
When they're old enough
to know better,

Dm
Am
C#
it's better to leave them alone.
Dm

Though they act like
little babies of two,
take it from me,
they can take it from you.
Never say too much in a letter
Or tell all you know on the phone
I asked a girl to shimmy
Am

My gosh,
to know better
It's better to leave them alone

Though they act like little babies of two
Take it from me,
they can take it from you
Never say too much in a letter
Or tell all you know on the phone
Once a widow told me she was twenty -four
in the Civil War
When they're old enough to know better
Dm

It's better to leave them alone
Thank you, God bless you,
thank you Mr. Ken, Mr. Rich,
and Miss Marla
for your wonderful time.
Until then, nighty -night!
