The Whistling Coquette - Billy Murray
Composed by:Billy Murray
My brother used to tease me when I was a little girl
That was years ago
Not so many though
He said when I grew up I'd win a millionaire or earl
From San Antonio
For a beau
To create a big sensation gain distinction and renown
There is nothing like the stage so I have heard
With your picture in the paper and the talk of every town
You would captivate the men upon my word
But I told him I could claim attention whistling like a bird
What with whistling
Just like this
Ah girls whistling I think is quite cute don't you boys
Some whistling is music some of it is noise
If a girl whistles sweetly no matter the air
Enchanted to one she gets a cold haughty stare
But if folks don't like it I'm sure I don't care
A year ago society attracted by my style
Hastened from their farms
Opened wide it's arms
They all made such a fuss of me
It fairly made me smile
They were fond of charms I'd no alarms
Men went upon their bended knees beseeching me to wed
But I told them I was married to my art
You could have filled a bucket
With the tears they used to shed
Why they wet more than a New York sprinkling cart
When I whistled in one fellow's ear
He said I broke his heart
What with whistles
Yes just like this
A girl's taking a chance when she whistles like this
Her mouth puckered up as if asking a kiss
So girls when you whistle beware of the men
They'll say you are worse than an old cackling hen
But the way to get even is whistle again
