Helen Kane — Dont Be Like That

Oh, at last I've got you near So I can tell you, dear That your funny disposition almost drives me wild! I know that you could be So nice and sweet to me; But you treat me just as though I'm a child! I ask you for a kiss You give me just one kiss When I'd want another kiss; Ah, don't be like that! And when I wanna pet And I think we're all set You play so hard to get; Don't be like that! I wish I knew if you really love me The things you do, make me think that you don't think much of me You know, we'd make a lovely pair If you could only care But you're a frigidaire; Aw, don't be like that! I call you on the phone And I get you on the phone But you say you're not home; Oh, don't be like that! Ya know, when you call on Sunday night And everything is just so nice But you let the lights burn bright Don't be like that! You think that I'll spend my evenings gaily When all you try is a tune on your ukulele You know, another thing I found When Christmas time comes round You're always out of town Ah, don't be like that! Oh, don't be like that! Oh, honey dear, you are so appealing And when you love, oh, you love with such feeling! I love that boop-boop-a-doop You love that boop-boop-a-doop We love that boop-oo-doop-oo; Oh, don't be like that!
